that is great news. Is windows 7 and all it entails. Ribbons, and the like, worth getting yet? I am a little incompetent, as you know, but all my colleagues have gone over to it. I suppose it would be better to wait until j-tools is ready for JAWS 12.

This is not a Jaws fault but in many instances the result of not following certain guidelines on the part of the document developer. Moreover, the manipulation of its contents is difficult to achieve due to the fact that in many instances the documents are protected. Thus copying and pasting becomes almost impossible unless the pdf is saved as a text file or is converted to a text file using an OCR program such as K1000 or Open Book. It would be great if the functionality of J-Tools could be extended to pdf documents.
