Yes, I do get text from the graphic John linked to, but on closer inspection
it doesn't read the whole thing - so probably not as useful as I thought
(sorry John).
I think adjusting the Zoom setting can make a difference, but not enough.
I'm using Firefox and Jaws 15.

Did you try the link he posted?

Jaws did not do any OCR for me in Firefox.

Hi John,

The following works for me:
Jaws Key with Space followed by o followed by C.

Best,

Hi All

I'm hoping I'm doing something wrong, because I can't get Jaws to perform
OCR on a picture online which has text in it.

The picture is at:

https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/t31.0-8/fr/cp0/e15/q65/14560155_1015369

<https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/t31.0-8/fr/cp0/e15/q65/14560155_101536
92817356707_3593141962013026460_o.jpg?efg=eyJpIjoiYiJ9> It is a band
poster
with information about upcoming gigs etc and my wife can read it easily.

I've tried several of the jaws OCR reading combinations, but I'm getting
no
joy.

Any help gratefully received, John
