Well that was a bit of an experiment. As usual I managed to get it to speak all sorts, but for some reason it was showing none of it in braille. I changed the braille code temporarily to UEB and it

You need to go into NVDA's document formatting settings and ensure the attributes you want reported are checked - font attributes for bold and italics. With those checked, it's then up to how the

Hey everyone, Can I get NVDA to do more document presentation in braille? I want it to mark the italics and bold and colors etc like I should be able to do in jaws, but right now am unable to get

I'm very surprised that anything to do with a statutory body in most countries still uses these, as legislation should make the use of visual only devices illegal. There are now so many other choices

It is described in the manual in section 4.6. Basic NVDA commands.

It's a free plug-in for Chrome or Edge: https://www.microsoft.com/en-au/microsoft-365/microsoft-editor?activetab=tabs%3afaqheaderregion3 You probably need to log in to a Microsoft Account (also free,

Steve, You have a license key for Jaws, correct (which you likely had to enter the product key for in some form at some point)? That's your account right there - it's a way for Jaws to be able to

Hi, Betsy. I'm not aware of any functions built into NVDA that can decode and announce captchas. That being said the extension that I've used in the past is Rumola, which you can get

I have no idea how long ago I wrote down the directions I have but cannot seem to get it to work to read a Capchua as I seem to be missing a step or else Cloud vision no longer works with NVDA. Could

Is this Microsoft editor free or do I have to pay for it?

Hi Quentin, Sorry, but this is plain wrong. You don’t need to log into any account for JAWS to give you image descriptions, but I do agree, they probably paid handsomely for the privilege.

Now this I would agree with. NVDA should offer image descriptions natively. All the best Steve

Hi Quentin, I get what you’re saying, but what is contradictory about what I said? I basically said that NVDA doesn’t provide for OCR using a camera or scanner, but I don’t think that is

I don't think there is another suitable key. Control is already used to interrupt speech because it does nothing when pressed by itself. I suspect few people turn interrupt speech

Hi. That's what I think too. Certainly, the choice of the "Shift" key to interrupt speech may not be very judicious. It would take another key to keep the functionality whatever

Hi Bhavya, One of the main blockers to this is license-free access to a description engine. I don't believe we're against including such functionality, but all of the ones I know of are either paid,

Dear all, I don't mean to detract from the main subject of the thread, but is there an add-on or future plans for core for NVDA to offer image descriptions? VoiceOver, JAWS, and I believe Talkback

Steve, That's a very contradictory point! It's true that NVDA does not have the facility to let you scan a hardcopy document with a scanner directly, and we would also argue that is the realm of

It may be a bug, but I doubt it.  Consider the following: When the check box is checked and you press shift, pause turns on. It turns on when you press shift, not when you release it.  If you press
