Comments are used to make suggestions in a document without changing the text. Visually, they appear in balloons inside the margins. You can read, reply to, and delete comments using keyboard commands.
To navigate among comments from any location in your document:
1.) Move to the next comment thread from your current location by pressing ALT+R, N.
2.) Move to the previous thread by pressing ALT+R, V.
3.) When you use these commands, focus navigates to the side track or to the Comment Pane if it is open.
4.) Alternatively, navigate to the comment and use the JAWS command ALT+SHIFT+APOSTROPHE (‘) to read the comment in focus. Hold down ALT+SHIFT and press APOSTROPHE twice quickly to display the comment in the JAWS Virtual Viewer. You can then read it using your arrow keys. When finished, press ESC to close the Virtual Viewer and return to your document. If any of the comments have replies, they will follow the original comment. JAWS will read them in order, and they will be displayed this way in the JAWS Virtual Viewer.
