Hi Rashmi,
The best you will probably be able to do in Adobe is use the
"Save as Text" feature from Adobe's File menu. Then open the
resultant text file in Word.
George.

Thankyou, I had to do it individualy with each word and have
cure the problem. I wonder whether you throw any light in
converting PDF document into word. I use word 2003 and
Adobe reader 8.1.1
I hope you will able to help.

Rashmi

Hi Rashmi,
Ok then, here goes.
1. When you are in the Acrobat Reader press Insert
D to bring up Dictionary Manager.
2. At this point you will be on an "Add" button,
now press enter.
3. You are now in the first of two fields. In the
first field type
edit read only
4. Tab to the next field and press the spacebar.
This will insert a space.
5. Now tab to the Ok button and press enter, then
Ctrl S to save changes.
6. You will now be back on the "Add button" so
simply go through the same process but this time type
read only edit in the first field.
What I have described will only change things in
Acrobat Reader but if you want to make changes Globally then
press Ctrl Shift D when on the Add button to put the changes
in a default file. I would not advise it in this case.
From now on when Jaws sees either of these
expressions in Acrobat Reader it will treat them as if they
were a space and say nothing. However, what you type in the
first field has to be exactly right, including any extra
spaces between the words. Upper or lower case doesn't
matter.
Best of luck.
David

Hi David
Thank you for the suggestion but would you
mind in explaining step by step how to go about in entering
each expression in the Dictionary Manager. Regards

Hi Rashmi,
As a quick fix you might try putting
each expression in the Dictionary Manager and in the second
field insert a space.
The Speech and Sounds method is good
but must be to do with the Acrobat Reader.
Best of luck.

Hi List
Jaws 9.0.519u, keeps on anouncing
now and again, "read only edit" or "edit read only" when a
PDF document open using Adobe reader 8.1.1, which is very
annoying.
Please help to rectify the problem
of my annoyment.
Rashmi
