Problem with comverting to Word or with Openbook is that the formatting is lost. Only way I know is to purchase Adobe Acrobat and edit the document directly. However I own the product and have to admit never editing anything, so cannot comment on how well it works with JAWS.

I NORMALLY COPY AND THEN PASTE TO A WORD DOC AND EDIT THE DOCUMENT. Once I
am through with my editing I then convert it back to pdf from a program
that I downloaded (it's free) called pdfcreator. There's also another
converter called primopdf that's free that you can use to convert a revised
document back to pdf. I am sure there are converter programs out there that
will convert from pdf to word and then back (so you can do your editing),
but I have never found any that worked correctly that were free.
