Hmmm. Isn't there an OCR built into Acrobat Reader, in one of the menus?

Katherine,
Adobe Acrobat Reader will tell you that a PDF document is empty if there is
only graphics in the document. If the graphic image has text in it, it is
unreadable by JAWS because the text is just part of the image. The solution is
to use an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) program, such as OpenBook, Abbey
Fine Reader, ect. to convert the text in the image to screen-reader accessible
text.
