Thanks very much, Shirley. That sounds a great way round the problem. I'll
try it next time.

Best wishes,

Joan.

Hello Joan,

I have come across this problem with JAWS and the PDF files.

If you try going into the menu bar and saving it as a text file, you will
find it saves as a Note Pad doc, into My documents,  and then JAWS will read
it!...

Good luck,

Shirley.
