The only way is to send the document to a virtual printer in an OCR package
such as Kurzweil, Open Book or Omni Page with a view that the OCR package can
re scan the image and produce text.

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". PrintinHello Barbra
unfortunately i think your pdf documents are picture files and not ocr
scanned documents, and i think there is no way to convert them to text.
regards frankg 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.
