yes i had that option but just used the recommended settings - is there a way 
to get back into that setting?

or is it just a case of re installing the program?

  I think you can set up Acrobot to be more friendly with screen readers when 
you install it. it's not that great, but it helps, if only a bit. did you have 
that option presented to you?

    hello list.

    i recently installed adobe acrobat reader 7 and haven't made any changes to 
settings in it.

    this is the first time i have used an acrobat reader so am unsure exactly 
what i am doing.

    when i open up a pdf file a dialogue box appears saying that the file is 
untagged.

    i have various options and i keep them at the recommended ones and then hit 
enter on start.

    the document duly loads up and using my control key plus page up and down i 
can read the content.

    or so it seems.

    after the first page finishes i press control page down and it start to 
read the next, but it is as ifjaws has missed a section or paragraph of text as 
the second page doesn't seem to follow on from the first.

    now, are there any settings that i should change to let jaws work a little 
better with this version of acrobat reader or maybe i have missed a keystroke 
for the general reading of the document.

    all help is appreciated.

    stephen
