Hi again,
Not a good start.
I have downloaded the xps viewer and opened the file. Gues what, not
readable, at least not with window-eyes.
I did print and put it through the scanner and got some jumble of text so it
must have appeared on the screen.
I wonder if this is microsoft not making their reader accessible or the
document creater?
