Open the pdf file.
Go to Print.
Select your printer in the drop down box.
Choose the K1000 virtual printer.
Then print. This is not printing to a printer. The K100 will then as best it
can, by means of the integrated OCR translate your file. It will depend on how
long it takes, by the size of the file. Your K1000 may start reading the
document, in my case I just stop the speech as I do not want to hear it. When
completed K1000 gives a chime. By then you will be ready to save your document
and you can choose to save it in K1000 or you may wish to save it as a Word
document. I am presuming you know how to Save in K1000 if you have this
software.

Hi Alfred,
Would receive an image file (scanned) from time to time so wonder now how I
would be able to read them with K1000?
Cheers,
Tony

Tony first thing to establish is if it is an image document or one that can
be read with a screen reader. Do you have any idea. You should in theory be
able to open the pdf document and just read it with Jaws but I do not use Jaws.
If I want to read one, If an image file then you will have to run it through
K1000 which will take less time than printing it out and scanning it in.

Morning folk,
Now for the old chestnut of reading PDFs with jaws.
Anyone know the up to date position of how we can read PDFs with jaws or
similar?
What do we need to do or acquire to so do now a days?
It can be very annoying not being able to so do specially for business.
One way I believe is to print them out and then scan them butt that's so
time consuming.
TIA,
Tony Sweeney
