Hey Gang,

 

Does any one know how to navigate between tabs in Excel?  I sure would
appreciate a tip.  Thanks

Julie

Thanks a bunch. Yes, that is what I was planning on. I just wasn't certain
if there was anything actually on it. Laughs. Thanks a bunch.

Samara,

As others have said, you have a PDF document made up of images of the form
pages.  If you had an OCR program, you could run the PDF document through
it.  Unfortunately, if your intent is to fill out the form using JAWS and
print it for submission, this probably wouldn't be possible since OCR
doesn't always do a good job of preserving the formatting of a document,
especially of a form.  Your best bet would be to print the form from Adobe
Reader and get sighted assistance to help you fill out the form.

Hi, I'm trying to download some forms from the America's Got Talent site,
and I know there are things written on the forms, because it'll say
"processing page 9 of whatever", but when it's done, stupid jaws just keeps
saying "alert, empty document." I know the damn thing isn't empty and I need
these forms. Any ideas?
