It was quite a while ago, but I eventually was able to get Adobe Acrobat DC to read the file.

 

I do agree with you, though;  sometimes, Jaws OCR scanning is another good way to resolve issues like this.

Hi Tom,

 

If you’re using the latest version of Jaws, sometimes I find it easier to do an OCR scan of the PDF file, and that allows me to read it much more comfortably. If it’s a big file, you have to wait 30 seconds or so but it’s worth it.

 

To do the OCR scan:

 

  1. Press Jaws key with space
  2. Press the letter ‘o’
  3. Press the letter ‘d’ (not similtaniously).

 

The scanning will begin and Jaws should make a clicking noise while it’s scanning.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Cheers

Zel

Hello, everyone.

 

I am trying to read a multi-page PDF attachment I just received, but I can’t get Adobe Acrobat DC to advance beyond the first page.

 

Is there a setting I need to change to make this happen?

 

I used to be able to read multi-page documents with no problem, and wonder if something got changed in an update.

 

Thank you!
