Interesting.. Well are there some pdf's out there that can't be converted to text? Like today a friend of mine has his house up for sale and I got the pdf and I had that irritating adobie installed from that awful site as it was in the control panel and when I opened that pdf well adobie said graphic and as far as I could obtain any info on the screne it didn't tell me anything about the pdf in question nor did it convert it to text.. So I poked around in adobie's menus and thinking I didn't set up the accessibility part right when it was installed so saw that read text aloud choice in the menus and did the hot key for it and all it said in some weird voice was, blank... So guess I'll never know 'bout that sale of that house,lol hehehe
