And, when the pictures were removed there was probably no remaining text in the file. to a sighted person, text in images and straight text in files are virtually the same thing. (You would need OCR software to convert images of text into meaningful text.) Not sure what is the latest .docx version that Open Book can convert from. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Trish" <[email protected]> To: "Jaws Users List" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 20, 2013 2:51 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Attachment will not read >I recently received an attachment from my association.
