Hi David, Follow the steps below to insure that Adobe is setup for a screen-reader.
Note that there are links with the Security Enhanced section to explain the consequences of unchecking items there, and you may want to find out what they have to say. 1. Open Adobe by pressing enter on your desktop shortcut & go into preferences with the keystroke, control + K. JAWS lands on an item in a tree view. If you have been here before, it will be the item you last opened. Arrow down to Security Enhanced. Note that this is the item below "Security." Then uncheck these 2 options, the 2nd option is not necessary to uncheck but, optional: Enable Protected Mode at startup, needs to be unchecked. Enable Enhanced Security, does not need to be unchecked. Note. When making changes in the Security Enhanced section, you will be told that Adobe needs to be restarted, but you can wait to finish the other changes first. 2. Launch the Edit menu, scroll down to the Accessibility submenu and open it. Scroll down to the Set-up Assistant and press enter. The Set-Up Assistant has five screens, but the only change you have to make is on the last, screen 5 of 5. Go through all the screens, pressing spacebar on "Next" in each instance, until you reach the fifth and final screen. Here, tab to the check box labeled "Display PDF documents in the web browser" and make sure it is unchecked. It may be checked by default. Then tab to the Okay button. Take care.

Hi list members, I'd like to know if there is another pdf reader program that I can use besides adobe reader? The reason why I'm asking this question is because I'm noticing that the most recent version of this program seems to take longer to load. Also, it seems to take longer for the pdf files to load as well. Thank you for any tips or suggestions that you might have.
