In my case, I was having focus until I got to page 2. Somebody on this list

haven't had to do it again. I am not sure if that i

Hi Cheryl,
I've used the Windows version of ABBYY and basically I agree with you. It's

Your advice is appreciated but if i did that (1) a sighted person would know
business I don't need him/her to know and I might as well just go back to

Sure is. Here's how I do it:

2. Now, if you press shift+VO+M, you open a short cut menu in which there will

It's a bone to throw at institutions who will insist that microsoft office is
