Hi Ann!

Here you go!  It's actually Larry's solution, but I kept a copy for you and
me, and everyone else who always seems to need it! 

Thanks Larry!

See below.

To Make JAWS say "Page Break" in Word, you need to add the entry "page
break" to your dictionary  If you use word, do the following
1.  open your document in word (any document will do for this).  
2.  do insert-d to open the dictionary manager.
 
3.  There should already be a jaws word dictionary but jaws will ask to
create the file if not. 
4.  space on the "add" button.
5.  in the "actual word" field,type the backslash symbol and then 012
unspaced from each other.
6.  in the "what you want jaws to say" field, type "page break"
7.  save with control-s and check in your document to see if page breaks are
announced now.

Hi all,

I recently upgraded my Jaws to 12.  Now, it will not announce page breaks.
It says the number of the new page, but it doesn't distinguish between soft
and hard page breaks.

I'm also in the middle of revamping computers, rearranging my office and
various and sundry.  Some time back I think Mayrie posted a solution to my
problem, but unfortunately, it has gone the way of all good things.  It
resides on one of the hard drives which hasn't been connected yet.

Mayrie, if you'd consent to repost your solution, I'll be in your debt.

Ann P.
