Hi Scorpio,
Sometimes when going to the next page in long documents, especially on slow 
computers, JAWS does not reactivate the Virtual Cursor and simply speaks the 
reading window as “AppPageView.” Since Adobe Reader supports using arrow keys 
and HOME/END to move between pages, if you try to move in this situation you'll 
change your position in the document.
When this is happening frequently on a given document, after I press CTRL+PAGE 
DOWN to go to the next page and after pressing CTRL+HOME I find that the 
Virtual Cursor was not reactivated, I press F6 to move to the next panel and 
then SHIFT+F6. This forces a FocusChangedEvent to be fired and, in facts, JAWS 
recognizes this area and reactivates the Virtual Cursor.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Using Adobe Acrobat DC

Hi Folks,

Just learning to work with Adobe Acrobat DC, and am a bit stifled at being able 
to read documents, particularly long ones.

It would seem that jaws will get stuck on certain patches of text, but when I 
do a say all command, it’s able to pass by that text and continue reading.

I also find it jumping from one page to the next, mostly when I try to re-read 
a line or some other part of the text.  This tends to happen most when I’m 
using the arrow keys to go through the document one line at a time.

Does anyone have any tips or maybe some suggestions on how I should set this 
program to better read PDF documents with Jaws.

I’m using Adobe Acrobat DC, 2015, Windows 10, Anniversary Build, not the 
creator’s build, Jaws 18, latest build.

I can’t say if it happens with all screen reader, and it’s too late to discover 
if it does at this point, but if I find out more, I’ll write in and let 
everyone know.

Thanks for any advice.

Scorpio
