To answer your question we need to know a bit more about the CD. A cds rom should show up like any other drive in your computer so there should be no problem with looking at the contents of the drive with Jaws.
Whether you can use Jaws to read the books and files contained on the CD depends entirely on the sorts of files on the CD. If the files will open with mainstream popular programs there will be no problems for Jaws. If the files open in narrow protected applications then the question of whether jaws will work will depend on how well the programmer has programmed the software. If the programmer has used the standard MSAA controls then Jaws will work fine. If non standard controls are used or the code is bad then Jaws will not work and you possibly need to raise this as a concern with the CD providers .

What I mean, is that I am going to be receiving some resources that have been loaded onto a CD rom, and actually a whole book is available on this Rom, will I be able to read it with jaws? Or is there even a way to make it in to a word document or be laid out to be easier to navigate? Thanks in advance.
