I have been sent a PDF form and have been assured that it is accessible and can be completed and then printed off. I have never opened a PDF on Windows before as I am generally a Mac user, but sadly VoiceOver on the Mac does not play nicely with Adobe products. I opened the PDF in Adobe Acrobat 10 and the version of JAWS is 11. Should the PDF start reading automatically? I have tabbed around and also hit the arrow keys, but nothing seems to happen. I can get the application menus to work, but I can't seem to get JAWS to speak anything on the 7 page document. I have enough sight to see that it is not a blank page. Do I have to do anything specific with a interactive form? Or is there a keyboard shortcut I am not pressing to tell JAWS to start reading the PDF? Many thanks in advance and if anyone would rather discuss this off list, then feel free to email me.
