You can also turn off graphics announcements by going into the Jaws 
verbosity menu with ins+v. Arrow down to General Options. Then right arrow 
once to open that, and again down arrow to Graphics Labelled. Press the 
spacebar till you find the option you want, tab to OK or Execute, and press 
enter.

If you want to turn it off in all applications, go to Jaws with ins+j. find 
the Utilities submenu; enter on that, then arrow down to and press enter on 
the Configuration manager. Go into Settings with alt+s; arrow down to 
Graphics and Symbols; enter on that, tabbing to the check box that says 
something about graphics verbosity. Arrow up and down to read the three 
options. Choose the one you want; tab to OK; hit alt+f4 to exit, entering on 
Yes when Jaws asks if you want to save changes.

Graphics are annoying, but they often help navigate a site with lots of 
clutter. they often mark the beginning of the content, so you can quickly 
jump to what you want when there's no heading.
