Try going into the document, doing JAWS+z to turn off the virtual cursor, selecting the whole document and pasting it into an empty Word or Notepad file. There's no guarantee but it might work.

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 ----- Original Message ----- From: Barbara Wilson <mailto:barkingbabs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, January 05, 2010 8:36 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] Reading PDF documents 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.
