Harry:
Depending on which version of Word you are using, the exact location may be
different. However, the setting you want is for the "page setup" for the
file and you can change it for the specific file or to the default for all
files. In this group of settings, there are provisions for displaying a
single page, 2 side-by-side, and some others under a tab for "margins". --
tabbing on the menu may not inform you where an option is, so try using both
the tab and the arrow keys to access all the options. I have only used the
single page display option. There are a variety of settings in this
grouping that you should look at for future reference if some special need
arises where you need to cram content into a limited space., or to achieve
other layout objectives.
Remember to make the change and select the default button if you want to
change the layout permentaly, and then keep pressing OK as you exit and
save the new setting.
Best!

I think you need to go into the view menu and tab till you here "one page
button" and press enter. I can't think of the key combination but you can
get there like I said above.

Hi Harry,
I've had this happen when the doc is set up such that page 2 is to the right
of page 1; then page 3 is directly below page 1 with page 4 to its right,
directly below page 2. I have no idea how one would even create a doc like
this & have only seen one or two like it. Unfortunately I never found a
good way to restructure the doc such that all the pages were vertically
aligned. I just ended up reading page 1, then moving the cursor to the
right & finding the top of page 2 & reading it then moving the cursor back
to page 1 and moving down to page 3 etc. You might try the go to page
function, cntl +G. I don't think that worked for me but it was a long time
ago; maybe it will work now.
Good luck,
Sherry Wells

Subject: [VICUG-L] jaws and word are not working correctly
Hi all,
I'm using windows 10, and jaws 17, on a desktop computer.
Here's the problem. When I'm in word, it skips from page 1 to page 3,
or, from page 2 to page 4, and so on. However, when I'm at the bottom of
page 1, and I press control right arrow, it does go to page 2, and I can
read the text of page 2.
I have never had this problem before! I did do a shut down, and then
turned the computer back on, and it still does the same thing.
I'm thinking about just using word pad to do my word processing, but
word pad, has no spell checker.
Anyone have a solution?
Harry
