ask the company to send it you in a more accessible format. Obviously you
would not want to be threatening as you would not want to lose business but if
you can find the right person within the company, the invoice must have been
typed at some point.
Which version of Microsoft Office do you have on your PC?
Office 2003 has OCR features already built in.

Hello Brian,
Thank you so much for your explanation!...The actual file is an invoice from
one of my wholesalers. I do have the appropriate software, but if it is a
graphic file rather than a text file then Jaws obviously can't read it.
I don't have either Kurzweil or the Open Book. The scanner I have is a stand
alone machine called Readanywhere. I think the invoice could be read if I
could open the attachment and print it off!...
The problem I had, was to actually open the attachment from the e-mail.
My husband was able to open the file and print it off.
Thanks,
Shirley.

Dear Shirley:
YA TIF file is a graphical image file, not text.
To open it you need a TIF file viewer. You could feed it to Kurzweil 1,000
or Open Book and OCR it back to text if it is a picture of text say from a
scanner.
Hope this helps.
