Using the Jaws search: Insert, control, F, has always worked for me in a PDF document. It searches the entire document as far as I can tell.

To the extent I understand anything about PDF files, they need to be properly tagged. What I do in order to get the information I need from untagged financial statements is to figure out what exactly that is. Typically, it's the amount due and the list of transactions, if any. I go directly to the amount due by searching for the $ dollar sign. If I want to read the transactions, I search for a portion of a date. For example, if the statement has a closing date in mid-September, I'll search for the two characters 9/ Since the most recent, and therefore top, transaction probably occurred in September. Naturally if 9/ doesn't work, I substitute 8/. Note. To search in a PDF document, press JAWS key+control+f. I realize this is a workaround, but perhaps it's helpful. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Greg Washington Sent: Saturday, September 09, 2017 8:19 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Changing pages in a pdf document Fernando, Thanks so much for responding. Unfortunately neither Control+page down or control+shift+n works on the document I am trying to read. Perhaps it’s the way the document was created that is causing the problem. The document is a monthly statement downloaded from my credit card web site. Iam using adobe acrobat reader DC.

To enter a specific page number, press CTRL+SHIFT+N, type the number and press ENTER. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Greg Washington Sent: Friday, September 8, 2017 11:56 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [JAWS-Users] Changing pages in a pdf document I downloaded a 4 page pdf document and cannot figure out how to change the pages so I can read pages 2,3 and 4. Step by step instructions would be greatly appreciated. I am using latest Jaws 18 on a Windows 10 computer.
