Lissi,I'm wondering if this document has styles attached to it. normal is a style. I don't believe it will have any affect on the final file, assuming that you've set the font for body and headings as we usually do. When I've encountered a document with styles, my screenreader would say style and then the name of the style, such as normal or heading style 1. It was annoying. I opened the file in Kurzweil, saved it, then opened it back up in Word, and all this junk was gone.

Dear Booksharian Friends,While working in word, I found my book document was in columns. By listening to the menu choices and by trial and error, /I found the choice to decolumnize the document. Meanwhile, I don't know when because I don't look at the screen much, I realized a vertical strip had appeared to the left of the document. I didn't know how to get jaws to read it, so after a visual struggle, I deciphered the word normal on every line that had writing on it. just one word per line saying normal. Because visual checking is so tedious, I only checked about 3 pages of this. Does anyone have a clue what I turned on or off to cause the normals to appear and how I can get rid of them?/// /Waiting hopefully.../ // /Always with love/ // /Lissi/
