Try unloading and reloading jaws before downloading the file.  It seems to
reduce the frequency of jaws refusing to speak.  Also, sometimes it just
takes a while before jaws will start again, 2 or 3 minutes.

Subject: PDF Files Help

I am using JAWS 7.00 and have in the past and currently  am having problems
when I try to access a pdf file.  I tried downloading an e.book in a pdf
format and the voice quit.  This has happened many times and if I do not
have a sighted person available to use the mouse to close Adobe Acrobat I
have to shut down the computer and restart it to get the voice back.  Of
course it's not the best thing for a computer to just power it down so I
need to find a solution which will enable me to download & read pdf files
since I have a course I ordered and need access to the e.book to study for
an exam  I must take to remain employed.
 
Your suggestions to remedy this problem will be greatly appreciated.
 
Regards,
Mark A.
