FoxIt used to be accessible. But changes to the program have made it
inaccessible for at least three years now. If you have an iOS device, by far
the most reliable way to access a PDF document is using the Voice Dream
Reader app. I still use Adobe Reader for short PDF documents, but I now put
longer PDF files into Voice Dream Reader and it makes reading them so much
better.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Accessibility of Foxit Pdf reader with JAWS
Hello gang.
Using Win8 and JAWS15.
My employer forces us to view certain internal documents I need for my
work, in Foxit PDF reader. Reading these internal PDF's in any other Pdf
reader is not an option.
My investigation reveals that the PDF documents I can read in Adobe reader
using JAWS cannot be read at all using Foxit reader. Clearly, Foxit reader
appears to be inaccessible to screen readers out-of-the-box.
Are you aware of any scripts or tricks/adjustments, that make documents
opened in Foxit Reader accessible to JAWS?
