MessageHello, If you happen to also have Openbook version 6 or later you can use the Freedom Import printer to OCR the graphical PDF file. Ctrl-P to open the print menu. Select the Freedom Import Printer. Openbook should then launch and the OCR on the PDF file will start, just as if you had placed the document in the scanner, but quite a bit faster.

Occasionally, and just occasionally, an option will display that reads something like Convert To Text. I saw this for the first time two weeks ago. It is worth a shot. It translates - as best as an OCR can and may not be accurate enough for you even if it is there.

You will have to print it out to fill it out.

I have an email message with an attachment that I have to fill out and use. When I click on it, I get something that says "alert, empty document". However, my husband says there is a document in there. It was sideways and we rotated it but Jaws is still not reading it. Any suggestions? HELP! Linda No virus found in this outgoing message.
