Custom JAWS Preferences and Settings
These are the custom personal settings I use for testing web pages and documentation and reading with the JAWS screen reader. This includes changes in the JAWS Startup Wizard and Settings Center both in general as well as for web page reading and testing documents for accessibility.
On the Custom JAWS Preferences and Settings page you will learn how to:
- Decrease the JAWS verbosity for Tutor Messages and Access Keys
- Disable the spelling buzzer sound and announcement of misspelled words while navigating or typing
- Disable speak character phonetically after pausing
- Turn off the list box announcement of position and count (2 of 4, 3 of 4, etc.)
- Adjust Web Verbosity Settings (JAWS default is “medium”) for clickable elements, region start and end announcements, etc.
- Adjust JAWS reading behavior for easier testing
- Adjust the JAWS visual tracking features
- And much more!
