Version 6 works with Jaws.  I have an idea that Version 7 only works with
Windows XP, but I could be wrong.  It certainly doesn't work with Windows
98, which I have.  I was going to download Version 6, but it was going to
take two hours ( I only have a dial-up connection), so perhaps a pdf
converter program is the way to go.  - Jessie Neagle
