If this is coming from a publisher, it is most likely not simply a scanned image, and should be readable with WE and Adobe reader. I am concerned about the reference to its being locked. I wonder how you unlock it.

I don't want to spend $50 and find it unusuable. The Book of Style for Medical Transcription, 3rd edition, is available in locked .pdf format for visually impaired MTs. I can purchase the book now in .pdf format on CD. Some screen readers require conversion of this .pdf file to text format in order to display its contents. Is Window-Eyes one of these or will a .pdf work as is. They do not say if this pdf file was scanned as text or not. There is free conversion softwar that I can download. This program will enable conversion of the .pdf file to a .txt file. if this conversion software can convert the pdf, is this function already contained in W-E? Thanks for any input.
