It's probably a dead loss, but there are a couple of tricks worth trying. First and simplest, try using narrator. Turkey though it is, it's read at least one file JFW couldn't handle. Then there's the technique I used to use before Reader became accessible--just copy the whole thing into the clipboard and dump it into Word. It may not be a thing of beauty, but that'll work, if anything will. Know though, If you have an image, your only alternative will be to scan and reconvert.

After it went through the accessibility change, JFW said that it was an 'Empty Document'. I tried the 'save to text' menu and it saved it to an empty file. Is there any way that I can get this file so that I can read it with JFW? I have JFW version 7, Windows XP Pro.
