Hi,

A colleague sent me a Word document which, according to JAWS, had nothing in
it.  I saved it as a text file and still according to JAWS there was nothing
in it.  So I thought it could be something to do with "inline objects" but
when I pressed CTRL SHFT O JAWS said "There are no objects in the text
layer).

I printed the document and scanned it, and there was text there.

So what is the problem with this document?  What do I tell my colleague to
do in future to make sure the documents are accessible to me?

Thanks,
Catherine
