Not if it is an image as Mike says, it would then be like converting a photograph of a page of text, which, I am sure is not possible. However, as I said to Richard, I stand to be corrected if wrong.

For this to happen, even with the Pro version of Adobe Acrobat X - which I have - the file would need to be a text file. It will merely create an image file in the Word document. However, if you have some other means of doing this, then please accept my apologies.

JAWS 13 will read the first page of a scanned image, but it cannot be saved and converted and you would need to scan each page and read it - quite a labour intensive process. The only option I can think of is to print the pages and scan in as an accessible document rather than an image. Cheers.

I need to convert it, but Kurzweil will not handle a document of its size, 62000 Kb. Any suggestions please? Kindest, Mike
