Unfortunately this probably means the document contains scanned images of the pages. In my case I open the document with Kurzweil 1000 which recognizes the pages and converts them to speech.

Subject: PDF "empty document" frustration


Hi listers,

I'm using the most current Jaws with Adobe Reader 8.1. I'm trying to read a PDF document downloaded from a web site, and all I get is the "alert: empty document" stuff. This document is less than ten pages and I really need access to this information. Save as text resulted in a blank document as well. I searched the Adobe site but no luck on resolving this problem. Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Norma
