The one I started this conversation with is loaded with social security
numbers. I could send you another one that is just as ugly but not exactly
as I explained already. In fact all the reports are ugly as pdfs.
In some places I have learned how to pull the information out of the ODBC
and into excel making it a whole lot easier to read with column and row
titles.
But the hard part about this one is it doesn't exist until I print it and
the taxes are calculated. It is made once I print it and then I have no idea
where it is, if it is any ware at all this is stored. I have a sneaking
suspicion that it is in many places once posted so it is not reproducible
after time.
I asked in another reply how pdfs are made, do you know?

but

Yes, my adobe is set for accessibility but it still is not easy to
interpret
the information.
They are reports that are in columns but they don't come through as real
tables like we would like. it is all jumbled up.
one line of the report reads across as period, gross, fica, med, fed,
state,
dues, int fee, and the next line has the amounts for those titles and it
reads year, 6789.55, 228.0,178.03,28.00, 130.00, 28.00,
it is really difficult to tell which amount goes with what title with out
remembering that the fourth title is the forth entry in the second line.
It just does not read well.
now If I could find the gross with the mouse and then move directly down
from that word to that location on the second line and then read that
amount
it would be so much easier.
Why does the mouse not work with a PDF? or why can't the brows curser be
made to work like the mouse curser and move directly down into the next
line?
These reports just are not set up verry well. I don't have the first clue
as
how or what can be done to read these better.

Is your adobe reader set to the accessibility settings?
If it is, you won't need the mouse pad.

Good afternoon,
I have to deal with more and more PDF docs. While the brows mode is
very useful in finding info written in the documents with the find
feature. I have a problem.
These documents I have to deal with are not very well laid out. Why
can the mouse not be used in adobe? I could do much better
interpreting of my particular docs if I could use the mouse to move
directly up and down once the text was found if the mouse could follow
the brows curser.
As it is the mouse only reads the top and bottom of the adobe window
and not the doc itself.
Am I just missing something?
Thanks for any suggestions
Shannon
