Make sure you get the accessible version of adobe reader. There is a
direct download link to the program on the jflwite homepage in its
programs section.

Hi folks, I've still not managed to solve my problem with Adobe 7.0, XP Home and Jaws 6.2. After cleaning everything out and downloading full versions from a variety of sites, I find that I can neither open .PDF files nor the Adobe program itself. If you approach the problem via the .PDF file's context menu, the system suggests Adobe 7.0 as the program to open it with, but when you hit enter, the only thing that happens is that the menu closes. Most of the time, my wife, who has her own settings, can't open Adobe either. On the odd occasion when she has managed to open it, she's tried to launch Jaws, but been told that the program doesn't support screenreaders. This is in spite of the fact that I've been meticulously following instructions to acquire downloads which do.
Has anyone had any further thoughts?
