Thanks, Kellie.
Sure, I can do that. This was already suggested on this list. I was just
brought up short, because I wasn't aware that the text was there at all until I
happened to cut and paste a passage with the unspoken text into an email
message, when it magically appeared. So not knowing that the text was there, I
wouldn't have known to do anything to make it readable to begin with. Luckily,
I do my real validation and reading-before-submission on my Pac Mate in
Braille, so this issue doesn't arise. The unspoken text was perfectly readable
on my Braille display. But I don't know if that was because the font attribute
was lost when I transfered the rtf file from my PC to my Pac Mate, or because
FS Edit is better at handling these types of things better than JAWS. That's
sounds a little strange, though, since they are from the same company, but it
is possible, I suppose.

Hi Evan,
I sure don't have a solution to this problem, but in my experience the
problem has most to do with font size. Have you tried reducing the unreadable
title to like maybe 16-point? I'm not sure how small something has to be before
it's guaranteed readable, but since font size doesn't survive conversion it
might make sense to select the whole document and pick a uniform font size
that's small enough for JAWS to be happy.
