Hi Francis,
 
A lot depends on what format the CD ROM file is in.  If for example it is Word, 
and is officially in columns, you should be able to convert columns back to 
text.
 
Otherwise, without knowing the format, it's a tricky question to answer, since 
JAWS does have automatic column recognition, regardless of document format.

Subject: [duxuser] Fixing pages with two columns


Hello Listers:
 
I have been given a CD-ROM containing a book with 24 chapters plus a number of 
pictures.  When I looked at each of the chapters I noticed that each page was 
divided into two columns and while my JAWS program (programme)? read the text 
correctly, is there a way to fix the duxbury file so that columns 1 and 2 are 
shown as continuous?
 
I am helping out with this project for a high school student and would like to 
get at least one volume of the book to the young lady asap.  
 
Please let me have the benefit of your experience and expertise to complete 
this project.
 
Regards.
Francis Khan
