Fusion Hotkeys

This article was posted by Freedom Scientific and can also be found on their website.

Fusion uses a combination of ZoomText magnification hotkeys and JAWS screen reading hotkeys to control magnification and speech. Below is a list of common commands to get you started with Fusion.

Note: When running Fusion, JAWS provides the screen reading functionality. The ZoomText screen reading features and associated hotkeys are disabled. JAWS uses desktop keyboard layout by default. Desktop layout lets you use your keyboard’s numeric keypad to type commands (hotkeys). If your keyboard does not have a numeric keypad, use laptop keyboard layout instead.
