Flor, I'll definitely try your suggestion. How would I know if the document has been structured access? What accessible features should I expect in the file?

This seems to help for large documents. Is the document structured accessibly? if it isn't, there are other things you can try. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cearbhall O'Meadhra" <omeadhrac@xxxxxxx> To: <vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, August 31, 2012 4:05 PM Subject: [vicsireland] Re: Reading large PDF files > Dear All, > > I have received a tutorial in Adobe PDF which is 44 mb in length.
