Actually, you don't have to manually download the PDF and open it. In Adobe
Reader go to Edit > Preferences. Then in the "Internet" section, there is
an option like "open PDF in browser" or something like that. Check or
uncheck this checkbox to open embedded PDF in a separate Adobe Reader
window.

Kiran.

Hi,

What version of jaws are you using? In my experience, jaws for Windows seven
.zero or jaws for Windows 7.1 work best with Adobe Acrobat reader version 7
or higher. In terms of consistency to PDF file access, a lot depends on how
the file has been produced. Are you buy any chance launching Adobe Acrobat
reader from a browser? If yes, that I suggest you download the PDF that you
want to view, launch Adobe Acrobat reader and then open the file to view it.

Subject: [AI] PDF document accessibility

Hi friends !

I never seem to get consistent accessibility to .pdf documents using Jaws
7.0.  The version of Acrobat Reader on my desktop is 7.0 and my OS is
Windows 2000.

Funnily, I never felt the same inconsistency while I was using Jaws 5.X with
Acrobat Reader 6.0  earlier.  Last few weeks have been the most frustrating,
since  clicking on a .pdf document opens the Acrobat Reader which then seems
to hang the entire system.  I am not even able to get the focus of Jaws out
of this window except through  the Reset button.

My work involves reading a lot of .pdf documents and this inaccessibility
has been stymieing my  productivity.  Is it that we have to use a particular
version of Acrobat Reader that is suitable for  a screen reader?  Or do I
have to make any special configurations in Windows, Jaws or the Acrobat
Reader for getting consistent performance ?  Kindly help with your
suggestions.

Thanks and regards
