Re: PDF in Firefox (or any browser)


Susan Kallsen <skallsen@...>
 

I think it has to be online in the browser since I need users to submit it
once they complete the test. Then it goes to an email address. Or
supposedly, since I haven't figured that out yet!! (any suggestions?)
Sorry, I should have said it's an online test form.

Gary, thanks for the suggestion about allowing PDFs to open in a browser,
unfortunately I already had that checked.

Adrian, Would you explain switching to a JAWS cursor for me? I'm learning
JAWS as I work on this project and I'm not sure what that is or what a JAWS
key would be?

Thanks all,

Susan

Honestly, even when I could still see I never had success with acrobat
hosted in the browser. Even then I was pretty much stuck saving the file
and loading it in reader.

Is having the PDF be a browser hosted form really a make or break issue for
you?

I have to add an IE question to this also!

My PDF is read by JAWS accurately in Firefox (as long as my cursor is
manually placed into the text area, see my issue with this below) but
I just tried it in Internet Explorer and it's not even recognizing it
if I manually place my cursor in the document.

More info: I created this in Acrobat Pro using all of the
Accessibility tags and edits necessary for it to "pass" as an entirely
accessible document.

Welcome any tips or ideas! Thanks,

Susan

I think this has a simple answer, but I can't figure it out!



I have created an accessible PDF form in Acrobat that is used online
in a browser. Once the cursor is IN the text area, JAWS reads
everything very well. But I can't figure out how to get JAWS to tab
INTO the actual PDF, it just tabs between the URL and other things at
the top of the page in Firefox. How do I get it to jump into the
actual
document?



Thanks!



Susan
