Hi Sylvia
There have been a number of problems with Jaws and Duxbury going back
years. For example, Jaws can't find blank lines in print files
produced by using the Control-M (new paragraph) command, similarly
with blank lines in braille files produced by control-K. Perhaps we
need to raise the issues again with both Duxbury and Freedom
Scientific, as I know that there are a growing number of people who
are using, or who want to use, Jaws with Duxbury. I'd be happy to
subit a list of compatibility issues to both companies if you are able
to give me some specfics about any problems you have with Jaws 4.5 and
Duxbury.
Cheers
Bruce
