Hi, Alan, I recently sent two pdf documents to pdf2text@xxxxxxxxxWithin a few minutes, they both showed up in my inbox converted into text. I could then read them easily on the computer, load them on the stream or Braille note and read them. It worked great.alicedh@xxxxxxxxxxx----- Original Message ----- From: "Alan Dicey" <adicey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, October 25, 2009 8:51 PM Subject: Adobe Reader 7.0 and PDF FilesHello Friends,I am using XP-Home, JAWS 9.0156 and wonder what version of Adobe Reader Ican use with my version of JAWS. I am currently using Adobe Reader 7.0 to open PDF Files with, but the results are not always very good, and sometime the end product of the conversion is not at all useful! Can you please tell me what is the highest version of Adobe Reader that will work with my version of JAWS? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

It's not that people haven't been co-operative, but I just like avoiding extra steps, if at all possible.

And, does anyone know how best to deal with PDF files that are scanned image files?I have K1000 here at home, but not at work, so a non K1000 solution wouldbe helpful.The folks at work are very helpful, and try converting the PDF's to Wordor text documents, but that is a real pain at times.
