Are you using Adobe DC or 11 or earlier? DC doesn't want to read sometimes, though it's visible on the screen. Open Book works like a charm, even with secure documents. The Kurzeweil 1000 is probably on par with Open Book.

I had a problem with JAWS 17 reading Adobe DC when I downloaded it but it seems to be working fine for me now. I've made all of the accessibility settings and checked not to read it in the browser - though Adobe DC is forcing me there. So if I want to email a pdf I get on the web, I must save it to my hard drive first..then email.

Will using the OCR convert it all to a readable?

I usually open it using kurzweil 1000 and read it that way.

I am wondering what the best general settings are for reading PDF documents in Adobe or is there a better program than Adobe for reading them. My issue
is consistency.

I am looking for settings in the PDF document, not in JAWS, although if
there are settings that will improve the readability of PDF documents by
changing JAWS settings, I would love to know those as well.
I was doing my bank statement this morning and reading it with JAWS 18 and
some of it was not reading. When I switched to JAWS 14, the missing items
showed up. No matter which version I use, PDF documents never read in any
correct order, at least the ones I need to read.

Thanks.

Vicki
