Hi Tony,

If someone did know (about JAWS having OCR), wouldn't we have heard about it? The JAWS help system is excellent in describing JAWS functionalities. OCR not being one of them. PDF's can be compiled from various source documents including text documents written on a computer (which the version of the iPhone manual is), as well as from images of such files. JAWS can't read image pdf's. (For those, you need an OCR program, like kurzweil 1000, Open Book, FineReader, OmniPage, etc.)

Hi Mareadd,

Thank you for that link to read up on the Ios4.

It is indeed a PDF.

I had no problem in reading it though which always wasn't the case!

Anyone know if recent Jaws scrreen readers have some sort of OCR readerr?

Cheers,

Tony

 Hi all,
 Here is a link to download the manual for the iphone.  The section on
 accessibility begins on page 211 which has a lot of useful jestures.
 Some of these include touch typing and browsing the internet using the
 voice over software.
 http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
  doc but thankfully I could read it no problem!

 Regards
 Mairead
