(it takes much longer to resove/OCR a poorly formatted pdf.) If people are referring to pages while discussing the pdf, then you can use the Go to Page Feature in Adobe Reader - ctrl-shift-n, and then type the page number and press enter. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Steve" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 1:30 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] large PDF file > Good luck with that, Brad.
