Freedom Scientific Releases JAWS® 10
Users Call JAWS TandemT a "Breakthrough"
(St. Petersburg, Florida, November 3, 2008) - Freedom Scientific today
announced the English release of JAWS version 10, the world's leading screen
reader for visually impaired computer users. This new release includes new
features that will expand employment, training, and educational opportunities
for users at all levels. These new features include AutoForms Mode, JAWS
Tandem, and RealSpeakT Direct Solo.
"The new AutoForms Mode makes it easier than ever for new users to work with
Internet Explorer, FireFox 3, and Acrobat Reader," said Eric Damery, Vice
President of Software Product Management. "There is no question that JAWS 10
has taken working with HTML and PDF forms or Web-based applications, especially
the new Web 2.0 Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA), to a new level."
For more information, try the updated Surf's Up training aid which now
includes all the details on AutoForms Mode.
"JAWS Tandem provides an accessible remote assistance option for anyone with
access to the Internet - including dial up. Technical Support staff,
consultants, trainers, dealers, and knowledgeable friends now have a simple and
powerful tool to assist JAWS users from a distance. It literally lets our Tech
Support team make house calls," added Damery. "Perhaps the most important part
of this feature is that friends can now help friends. Whether troubleshooting a
problem on their friend's computer, teaching them something about JAWS, or even
test-driving some new software with JAWS on their friend's machine before
buying, it has already proven to be a huge success."
For more information, take a look at the FAQs on JAWS Tandem.
The RealSpeak Solo Direct Synthesizer is another new feature in JAWS 10.
RealSpeak Solo is much more responsive than the SAPI 5 option in JAWS 8 and 9.
Customers will also appreciate the 43 different voices in 19 languages and the
convenient on-line location where everyone can sample and download any of the
RealSpeak Direct voices for use with JAWS and the upcoming MAGic 11 update.
These new voices are even available for use with demonstration licenses of
JAWS.
To make learning JAWS even easier, free DAISY training material for JAWS and
MAGic is now offered via the Check for Updates feature. JAWS 10 now includes 17
DAISY titles which can all be read using the free software DAISY player
(FSReader Demo) installed with all versions of JAWS and MAGic. MP3 versions of
all the DAISY training material are also available free of charge on the
Training Downloads Web pages.
Hear All the New JAWS 10 Features Demonstrated in FSCast
Listen to Eric Damery, Product Manager for JAWS, and Jonathan Mosen, Vice
President of Blindness Hardware Product Management, discuss the latest JAWS 10
enhancements in the August 2008 FSCast and the September 2008 FSCast. The
August FSCast covers AutoForms Mode and RealSpeak Solo Direct, and the
September FSCast covers JAWS Tandem and the new iTunes 8 support. For more
