One thing to try is, when in Adobe, do alt + F, and down arrow to save
as..., and then right arrow into "text, and let it do its thing, you may
need to select where it will go, by default, it saves in the same folder the
file came from, or in "my documents".
If that renders nothing in a TXT file, that is, the text file is blank, use
Open Book or Kurzweil to open it, and it will automatically do OCR on it
when it opens up.
If you have one of those programs, use the applications key on it, and arrow
to "open with" and if one of those programs is not in the list and one of
them is installed on your computer, brows to it there and find it.
HTH.

Subject: [real-eyes] Trouble reading a .PDF file.
I downloaded a 108-page .PDF file. when I tried to access it, it was blank,
which tells me that it is an image. The text is visible to a sighted
person; but of course, JAWS just says "blank." Does anyone have any ideas
about how I can read this? I have Adobe Acrobat. I have Text Cloner Pro on
a PC with Windows XP and JAWS 12. I'd appreciate any suggestions, thanks!
