Hi cecropia64,

I ran into a problem with a fellow list member who was having trouble with Adobe running Jaws8. We installed Adobe X / 10 & it worked very well with Jaws8. The latest version is Adobe Reader X / 10. If you install it , you will need to follow the steps below to make sure it works well with Jaws. You need to disable protected view first to get it to work well with Jaws. Do the following: 1. From either your desktop or start menu, press enter on Adobe. The Adobe window is now open, press control + K, to open preferences. Another way to get to preferences is after pressing enter on the Adobe shortcut, press Alt + E, for the edit menu, arrow up to preferences, & press enter. 3. When preferences opens you will be in a tree view and should be on the General page, if not arrow up or down until you have General highlighted. It is #4 of 29. Tab until you find a checkbox called enable protected mode at startup, uncheck it, choose yes on the warning you will get to continue. Then, tab to okay, press enter to save your changes / close preferences, & Alt + F4 to close Adobe. Hope this helps. Take care. Mike

But I bet that's the problem. If you have an older version of Adobe Reader you might try that, or try reinstalling the version you have. And what version is that, by the way?

SMALL PROBLEM. I'M USING JAWS NINE AND WINDOWS XP. LATELY, IT SEEMS LIKE WHENEVER I TRY TO GET A PDF FILE TO READ, ADOBE COMES UP BUT THE FILE ITSELF DOESN'T. IT SEEMS TO STOP ONCE ACROBAT LOADS. ANY SUGGESTIONS? SHOULD I UNINSTALL AND THEN REINSTALL ACROBAT OR IS THERE AN EARLIER VERSON I SHOULD BE USING. IT SEEMED TO WORK FINE FOR AWHILE, BUT NOW NOTHING.THANKS -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
