Jerry, Um, did you open it in Adobe Reader, or some other Adobe application? The "D" is meant for PDF documents. If this is a jpg or img or tif file, then you might need to use the "W" or "S" option in the OCR recognition.

I know that you should wait for a few minutes, but after doing so, there was still nothing.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

I just scanned a copy of my discharge papers from the US Coast Guard. After saving it, I tried to open it and read it using JAWS OCR. I pressed the JawsKey and Spacebar. Then I hit O for OCR, and then D. I heard a piano chime, but nothing from JAWS after that. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong on this? I went into my pictures folder in This PC to get the properties on the image, but could not get any specifics on it. I am running JAWS 17 and Windows 10 on a Dell laptop. I am also using a Canon CanoScan scanner. Thanks in advance.
