Hmm, too bad. I have installed Adobe Reader 9, but I don't find it very fast either.
Does anyone know another accessible pdf reader? It seems that there are many, but before testing their speed, we should know which of them are accessible...

Personally, I do not notice that the commercial Acrobat product is significantly faster than the free Adobe Reader. Both are frustratingly inefficient!

Thank you for telling me about that. I would have never thought about it.

The pay version of adobie opens pretty fast. I know it's stupid but the free one is slow the pay one is fast go figure.

(That opens faster). I heard that Foxit reader is accessible with Window Eyes. I have tried itwith Jaws, and it it is faster indeed, but I found that it is not accessiblewith neither Jaws 9 nor Jaws 6. But I have read that it is accessible and it respects the section 508 at: http://www.foxitsoftware.com/solutions/accessibility/index.html Does anyone know more? Thanks.
