Hello:

We have a client who has downloaded some e-books from the Chicago Public
Library.  He's a JAWS user.

The books are in PDF format, but they require something called Adobe
Digital Edition to read them.  JAWS will not read these books and they
can't be  read simply by bringing them up in Adobe Reader.

Has anyone had experience with these Digital Edition books and if so,
are there changes which can be made in Adobe Reader to read them or are
there  other programs which will make them readable with JAWS?

Thanks,
