Hi
About the only thing a person might be able to do is print the document
and scan it back in to the computer using OCR software.
God bless,

I have encountered the same problem with some PDF documents. The document
is not empty. It was scanned as an image. Therefore, JAWS is unable to
recognize it as text. I have yet to find a solution for this problem
though.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] "Alert document is empty"
Hi folks,
I recently received a PDF document and when I attempted to open it I
received the following message: "Alert document is empty."
Undaunted by Jaws inability to recognize certain PDF formatting I
proceeded
to open it in note pad as a TXT file and received a blank screen with
Jaws
simply sounding top and bottom alert.
Would it be safe to assume that because I receive no information using
either file format that the document is in fact empty and I need to have
the
document resent?
TNX
Larry
