Hi what version of adobi reader are you using? I downloaded v9 and ran the
settup. When the installation was complete i then ran the programme which gave
me a licence agreement after that there are a few options you can choose, one
of which is use settings for screenreader, this was chosen then tab and select
next or alter options if you desire. Forgive me if this is not what you are
asking but it is then screenreader usable.

I got this the other day when reading a claim form from Globespan..... say no
more.... it was actually done as a graphic pdf. If you go to the file menu when
you have opened up the pdf you'll find an option to save as a text file.
Not ideal but then you can either scan it or jaws should read it in notepad.
hth, Robin

I know this has been covered before, but can't remember if there was a
solution. I'm trying to read a PDF document but all I get is the message
"Alert, empty page". Printing this file out and scanning it isn't an option as
it is 130 pages long and I have several others to read. So how can I read the
text?
I'm using Windows XP and JAWS 11.
Many thanks.
