HI,
If someone knows the answer to this question, this board will...........

One of my students has a text book on CD from the publisher,  the
student has a learning disability/print disability. 

The text is in PDF, you can highlight text but not copy it to the clip
board.

It will not open in Keswile (SP), Wynn, Write Out Loud, or Talking Word
Processor. 

I have not tried it with Jaws, but I think that would be to much for him
to  handle. 

The only thing close to working is opening it in ReadIRis Pro then
saving it as a TIF file, but the problem is it will not do the whole
file. Then opening it in TIF format in Keswile (sp) The Read Iris people
say it is because the file is locked or protected that it can open only
part of the file.........


Any suggestions?
