To have the document I need to use Kurzweil to read it. Generally you would need to use something like Kurzweil or Open Book. Chuck -----Original Message----- From: t.

I forwarded it to my brother, and after he opened it, he said that the 10 pages had been scanned, and not sent as a regular saved document, and would like to know if there’s a way to let jaws read a scanned, PDF file? jaws 16,win 7 For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
