If the document has a multi-column layout, I often have to change the
reading order to 'left to right, top to bottom'. I wonder if there are
columns which are being read non-consecutively. If you read the status
line, you can see if you really are skipping pages, or if the movement
to the next page is working properly. If you tell Adobe to deliver the
entire document in that starting dialog, you can just read from
beginning to end without ever worrying about pages.

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?

Subject: acrobat reader and jfw
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
