Renette, I upgraded my copy of Abby Fine Reader Pro version 7 to version 8 wirth no problems while using JAWS version 7. Good luck.

Without going into details, a sighted friend of mine who is also using ABBYY Fine Reader and who updated his version, reckons that I shall have problems updating ABBYY Fine Reader using Jaws. Does anybody have any experience in this regard? Is he correct or can I go ahead and update my version? Thanks. Renette
