>Hi Folks,
>
>This note is particularly directed to people who are using, or 
>trying to use the ModelTalker Katy SAPI 5.0 voice, or a voice of 
>their own creation with screen readers. Several people have reported 
>that they cannot get the Katy voice to work with WinEyes or Jaws. 
>Apparently, the voice shows up as an option in the Windows XP speech 
>control panel, but cannot actually be used because an error occurs 
>when it is selected.
>
>To get a better idea of what is causing this problem, we are asking 
>people who use or have tried to use ModelTalker with a SAPI 5 screen 
>reader like WinEyes or Jaws to let us know whether it works for them 
>and what their hardware and software configuration is. In 
>particular, if you would send us:
>
>1) Does ModelTalker work with your screen reader?
>2) What version of Windows are you running?
>3) What is your memory size & cpu?
>4) What speech enabled programs are installed?
>5) What SAPI 4 & SAPI 5 voices are you using?
>
>Perhaps this information will help us locate the problem for users 
>who are experiencing it.
>
>To save other on this list from a lot of unnecessary traffic, it 
>would be most helpful if you would send this information to tts at asel.udel.edu
>instead of this mailing list?
>
>Thank you very much for your assistance!
>
>Best Regards,
