Renette, I did not misunderstand your question. I simply wrote that when I upgraded my copy of Abby Fine Reader Pro, I had no problem doing it with JAWS. While my version of Abby Fine Reader is an earlier version than yours, I doubt that you will encounter any problems doing an upgrade to the latest version.

I am currently using ABBYY Fine Reader 8.0 (Professional Edition) and there is an update to this version (which will then remain 8. something Profession Edition) after the update. The way it is done, is by having to remove the current version of my 8.0 and then download the updated version. Any experience with this? Thanks. Renette
