Press ENTER to open. >>>>> >>>>> 3. You should find some lines that read: >>>>> >>>>> Synth1Name=eloq >>>>> >>>>> Synth1LongName=Eloquence for JAWS >>>>> >>>>> Synth1Driver=eloq >>>>> >>>>> The number doesn't matter, it may be 1, 2, or 3, but it must be the >>>>> same >>>>> for all entries for Eloquence. >>>>> >>>>> 4.

Save your changes and exit Notepad. With JAWS version 5.x and >>>>> higher, >>>>> you are done. >>>>> >>>>> If you have JAWS version 4.x, you will also need to install the >>>>> updated >>>>> driver. As long as JAWS is running and speaking through Eloquence, >>>>> eloq.jls cannot >>>>> be simply overwritten when unzipping the file. You will need to switch >>>>> to NoSpeech or MS SAPI to get the eloq.jls to overwrite properly. >>>>> >>>>> 1. Download the file from >>>>> >>>>> ftp://ftp.freedomscientific.com/users/hj/private/eloq.zip >>>>> >>>>> 2. Unzip the zip file into the root of the active JAWS directory where >>>>> you made the change to the jfw.ini file. >>>>> >>>>> 3. Restart JAWS and it should now be speaking from the sound card you >>>>> wanted. >>>>> >>>>> 4. If not, make sure the entries are correct in the jfw.ini file and >>>>> that your sound card is indeed installed correctly. Most audio and >>>>> music >>>>> production >>>>> software allows you to select a sound device for it as well, so it can >>>>> use one sound card while JAWS uses another. >>>>> >>>>> Search Our Knowledge Base >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> Search >>>>> >>>>> Click Here To Provide Feedback About This Page. >>>>> >>>>> Additional >>>>> Resources:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>>>> >>>>> Hardware >>>>> Software >>>>> Training >>>>> Tutorials >>>>> Accessories >>>>> Documentation >>>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- >>>>> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] >>>>> ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: >>>>> ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >>>>> ** and in the Subject line type >>>>> ** unsubscribe >>>>> ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the >>>>> ** immediately-following link:- >>>>> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] >>>>> ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the >>>>> Subject:- faq >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> >>>>> -- >>>>> No virus found in this incoming message. >>>>> Checked by AVG Free Edition. >>>>> Version: 7.1.409 / Virus Database: 268.15.28/605 - Release Date: >>>>> 27/12/2006 >>>>> >>>>> >>>> >>>> ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- >>>> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] >>>> ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: >>>> ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >>>> ** and in the Subject line type >>>> ** unsubscribe >>>> ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the >>>> ** immediately-following link:- >>>> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] >>>> ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the >>>> Subject:- faq >>>> >>>> >>>> >>> >>> >>> ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- >>> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] >>> ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: >>> ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >>> ** and in the Subject line type >>> ** unsubscribe >>> ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the >>> ** immediately-following link:- >>> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] >>> ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the >>> Subject:- faq >>> >>> >>> >>> -- >>> No virus found in this incoming message. >>> Checked by AVG Free Edition. >>> Version: 7.1.409 / Virus Database: 268.15.28/605 - Release Date: >>> 27/12/2006 >>> >>> >> >> >> ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- >> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] >> ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: >> ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx >> ** and in the Subject line type >> ** unsubscribe >> ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the >> ** immediately-following link:- >> ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] >> ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the >> Subject:- faq >> >> >> > > > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] > ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: > ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > ** and in the Subject line type > ** unsubscribe > ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the > ** immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] > ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the > Subject:- faq > > > > -- > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.1.409 / Virus Database: 268.15.28/605 - Release Date: > 27/12/2006 > > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** ddots-l-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
