Re: How to run an accessible compare documents with Word

 

Hello:

There is a compare feature in Word that is accessible via the Review ribbon
(Alt+r followed by m. This feature has improved as Office evolves. In its
early days (office 2013 and earlier) it had numerous problems, but in Office
365, it is quite usable. This brings up a dialog that allows you to choose 2
documents to compare and will generate a comparison with changes highlighted
as if someone enabled track changes. The first thing I do after performing
this comparison is to save the compared results into a new document , close
Word, and then reopen the compared document. It now appears as a document
with tracked changes. Word also provides a feature to merge changes from
multiple authors, but I have never tried this feature so I am unable to
comment on its usability.

Hello again Chelsea,
I might be wrong but it seems, there's no usable way to compare two Word
documents if you're blind.
What you can do however (and it's a more correct way to proceed, I
should say) is to ask your editor or whatever person changing your
document to turn on track changes. That can be done either on the
Review ribbon, in the Tracking submenu, or just by pressing
Ctrl+Shift+E.
Thus, when he or she sends you the document back, you will hear
different revisions in the document. That works great with JAWS, but I heard
NVDA also does work.

Hello,

Another crucial part of my job involves running compares on documents.
I have my completed work, and I receive another document with
revisions in it. How do I compare the two so that I know what the
revisions are?

Thanks,

Re: Margin and paragraph questions regarding Word

 

Hello Andre:

I disagree with your comments regarding tabs in Microsoft Word. Tabs are
controlled by a Tab stop dialog which is accessed within the format
paragraph dialog (Alt+t). Tabs are not based on screen and printer
resolution. Tab stops are based on units of measurement (here in the US, the
default is a tab stop at every half inch). One can modify the tab stops on a
paragraph by paragraph basis, allowing for precise alignment. However, in
most cases, like tabular data, tables may be a more preferred method of
aligning various columns of text. While I agree that using tabs in general
is a practice that should be avoided, there are many places where tabs are
quite beneficial.

Word defines many different types of tab stops
. Left Tab : Left-aligns the text at the tab stop.
. Center Tab : Centers the text around the tab stop.
. Right Tab : Right-aligns the text at the tab stop.
. Decimal Tab : Aligns decimal numbers using the decimal point.
. Bar Tab : Draws a vertical line on the document.

Imagine that you want to create a header or footer in your document and you
have three fields to display (document title, page number, and version).
Using the various types of tab stops, you can left align the title, center
the page number, and right-align the version, all in one line. While you can
do this with a table, a table introduces arbitrary widths to the fields that
are not encountered when using tab stops.

To understand Word and paragraphs, Word identifies anything ending with a
Return (Enter) as a paragraph. This includes a block of text, a single item
in a list, a heading or title, and even a blank line. Word offers a plethora
of items that can be customized on a font and paragraph basis, including
font size, color, style (bold, italic, strikethrough, etc.) and paragraph
indent or outdent, paragraph spacing, numbers and bullets, etc. The real
key is that if one is serious about using Word in a professional
environment, modifying individual paragraphs or performing a select all and
applying formatting changes is a abysmal process. Word provides a powerful
feature known as styles accessible from the Home ribbon. Many Word documents
are composed of text that are formatted differently based upon their intent.
For example, captions for tables and figures, bulleted and numbered lists,
hierarchal lists, heading, table of contents, etc. Selecting all and
performing holistic paragraph and font changes can dramatically impact a
document. Styles provide a way to compartmentalize changes to a particular
feature and can be used to quickly modify the look and feel of a document
without impacting any of its structure. Imagine you are tasked with changing
the font of only paragraphs in a document (and not any of the captions,
table of content entries, heading, or title). On a one page document, this
is probably not difficult, but on a 300 page document, this would be a
daunting task if one had to go and modify every paragraph that contained
content. If all those paragraphs were the same style, a single change to the
style would change the entire document. NVA provides a mechanism to announce
styles in its Document formatting dialog (NVDA + Alt + d).

There are many good references on the web describing how to use styles in
Word, and many books devote one or more chapters to the topic. I will not
try to repeat that information here, but am willing to answer individual
questions. The real key to learning the intricacies of Word is a willingness
to experiment and explore that vast features offered and to ask Google,
Bing, or this group when you get stuck. Be sure, when asking Google or Bing,
that you add the words screen reader (or screen magnifier) as part of your
search.

Regards, rick.

Hi Chelsea,
Enter yes, but not Tab.
Enter does separate one paragraph from another, that's true. but the size
of a tab is changeable even on one system, and it does depend on screen
resolution, printer's DPI and so on and so forth. That's why I told you
not to use tabs nor spaces anywhere when formatting is involved.

Hi Andre and all,

So how does Word know one paragraph from the other if I'm not supposed
to use tabs or spaces? My editor specifically told me to press enter
followed by tab to get a new paragraph.

Thanks,
Chelsea

Hello Chelsea,
Please please, never, never ever use tabs or spaces for formatting!
It's actually the first commandment of a person learning document
formatting.
That is because if you do that, different monitors and/or different
printers will definitely mess the things up.
fortunately, Word is an extremely powerful software and it offers us
everything what we need here.
If you need to make first line indented by half an inch, open the Home
ribbon, select Paragraph, and then Paragraph... again.
This dialog is what you need. Here you can see a combo box called
Special. Press Down Arrow in it until you hear "First Line", then
press Tab. In the "By" field enter 0.5 and make sure your measurement
units are set to inches (if not, please tell me, I'll guide you
through).
Next. If you want to align all of the document left (which is the
default setting, by the way), you may select all by pressing Ctrl+A,
then press Ctrl+L. This is a Word command, but if you use JAWS, you'll
hear "Aligned left". If you hear "Justified", press the keystroke once
more (the recent versions of Word seem to toggle alignment).
If Word crashes upon selecting the whole document, size might be
the problem, yes. Then you need to select it part by part and apply
your changes. By the way, if it's 1 inch from the left, then probably
you have custom indentation there and you need to go to this Paragraph
dialog again.
And lastly, the difference between left aligned documents and
justified ones is the following: When you align left, the first
letters of your lines are on the same vertical level. When you justify
however (in some languages, for example in Russian, it's called "Align
by width"), Word makes your text so that first letters are on the same
vertical level and last letters are on the same vertical level. That
can lead to larger spaces between words on shorter lines.
Hope that helps.

Hello,

When formatting an exercise for my potential job, I need to indent the
first line of a new paragraph to 0.5 inches. No problem, just press
Tab, right? Well, when I did that, the person reviewing my work said
the margins got all messed up. When I did an insert F, things sounded
normal, though.

Also, how do I get everything moved over to the left in a document?
When I do an Insert F on another document I'm working on, it says left
indent of 1 inches. It's only part of the file, but I want to select
the whole thing to make it universal. I tried, but MS Word crashes.
It's a big file. Could that be a problem?

And what's the difference between justified and left anyhow?

Thanks,
Chelsea

>>Is OneDrive a part of Office?


You guys really do keep me on my toes. ? I did a double take with this question because Office 365 does provide a terabyte of storage space with OneDrive and so it could be argued that since more people might use OneDrive as a result of purchasing Microsoft 365 that we should permit OneDrive discussions on this list. However, technically OneDrive is not part of Office and so I'd like to keep OneDrive discussions to a minimum. However, it is reasonable that someone might want to know about strategies to efficiently save their Word documents or their Excel spreadsheets to a folder on OneDrive or, for that matter, on Dropbox and, in that context, I think discussions along those lines are fine.

Here¡¯s the link. You need to select the Mac OS tab.

Re: Addresses autocomplete

 

Even though the recippients in question in my message below were recent ones, it didn't help but the next day, what do I know, everything returns to normal, spellchecker thingy sorted and addresses too, last time it took three days also, no idea why it does this and I didn't want to take for granted that it'll just fix itself as it did again, so next time I'll remember to be more paeient and wait for three days to see what happens but would still be interested why Windows ten throws itself out like that for awhile after updates.

Thanks for all the help.

Subject: Re: [office-accessibility] Addresses autocomplete

When composing a new email message using Outlook, the email addresses that appear below the "To" field after typing in a few letters are previous recipients, not names in your address book.

If you want to use names from your address book when composing a new email message, you must first place focus in the"To" field and then open the address book using the keyboard command ALT plus period.

Subject: [office-accessibility] Addresses autocomplete

Hi

I'm using Outlook 2016, not sure which version of Office as I've had this pC since November 2017, may well be version 2013. I notice that since the update to Windows 10 to the latest version a few days ago, autocompletion of address when sending emails in Outlook 2016 seems to have changed as it doesn't always say anything when I type in a name and address or only says after the first two letters whereas before frequently used addresses said this, especially if people have more than one address, not sure what I need to do.

Thanks.

Re: Automatically adding previously used addresses to the address book in Outlook2016

 

Hi all,

Geetha, how did Outlook Express automatically add previously used addresses? I remember there was a setting where you could add an address by arrowing to add to address book, I think and then pressing enter, trying to remember the option directly above it, no, that just said address book, I think, I know there was also contacts which I never checked, thinking it's merely a duplication of the address book but when I typed an address in the to field that wasn't in the address book, it wasn't automatically there unless I think one could reply to all. I notice that in Outlook 2016, whenever I use an address and I type it nect time, it's there even though not in the address book, discovered that it's put into contacts, ctrl-y for go to folder and then to one's contacts folder or a quicker way I discovered by fluke once, I typed ctrl-n to do a new message ahdn then randomly typed f, can't remember what I was doing, I think trying to insert a plain text file or something, arrowed down and there I found some names that weren't in the address book yet though I'd used them, so you type ctrl-n and then any letter of the alphabet or number if the address starts with a number and arrow down till you find it, not sure if this helps and I usually delete such a contact until they reply and I then decide whether I want to use it again, in which case I open the message with enter, tab once and then do d for add to Outlook contacts and fill in the details and then tab to save.

Many thanks.

Ricky

Subject: [office-accessibility] Automatically adding previously used addresses to the address book in Outlook2016

Hi all,

Unlike Outlook Express, MS Outlook does not automatically add previously used addresses to the address book. IN Outlook2016, is there a setting that one can configure in order to get Outlook to do so?
All the previously used addresses otherwise disappear when one migrates an email account and the corresponding .PST file to another computer.

Many thanks.

Getting Rid of Weird MS Word Document Numbers

 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

Hi all,

?

I am working with a student, who every time she opens a new blank Word document, it gives it numbers like Document 94, or 162, or whatever, rather than Document 1, 2, 3, etc. Any idea how it can be returned to normal 1, 2, 3 numbering? It¡¯s driving us a little crazy.

?

Thanks,

David
