Hi Chris, Yes, the QRead window was maximized when I tested it yesterday but I only had one document open. Interesting enough, today I am getting different results. When I open QRead, after having a document open previously in the program, the program window opens in a restored state and shows a correctly sized rich edit box containing the text of the document. The maximize entry in the system menu is unavailable but since the rich edit box control is sized correctly in the restored window, Window-Eyes is still able to read the text with no problem. So, the good news is, Window-Eyes is now reading text in QRead without having to take any additional action after launching the program. Another side note is that I am running the program in demo mode. Hopefully, this means that other Window-Eyes users will be in good shape with QRead just as you have experienced. Rob and I apparently ran into an intermittent issue that seems to have worked itself out by restarting the application a few ti mes.

Is QRead maximized, what happens if you have more then 1 document loaded, for me that is the case.

After downloading, installing and opening a PDF file in QRead, I made an interesting discovery. On first launch, the standard rich edit box control which is used to display the text of the document is so small it only displays one character. If you move your focus to the Desktop and then use Alt-Tab to return to QRead, the rich edit box resizes itself and presents much more of the text on the screen. Once the rich edit box control is resized, Window-Eyes had no problem reading the text using arrow keys, Read To End, etc. So, I would recommend you try this workaround to see if it solves the problem on your machine. This testing was done using Window-Eyes 8.2 on a Windows 7 64-bit computer. I hope you get the same results. Feel free to contact the author of the program and suggest that the rich edit box is sized correctly on first launch . Good luck!

You can hit h for heading and l for links and hear the item focused on, but if you try and arrow or read to end, or mousing, nothing is spoken. This is windows xp. Something I can fix?
