Ian,
as I do in windows, open the PDF document in your OCR program.  I use OB in 
windows to accomplish this.
HTH.

Subject: [Mac-access]: University reading and DRM on web


Dear All.
I am having real problems with my degree and it is stumping my University IT 
team as well.

I am often given links to e books to read. I am usually given two options - 
download a pdf or read online. I have permission to do so. The downloaded 
pdfs appear blank, just constantly saying "new line, new line" in preview. 
When I try to read online I cannot seem to access the text to start reading. 
My wife says the text is there but I can't get the voice over cursor into 
the document. I don't know if it is a frames issue or a DRM problem.

Has anyone out there solved this or come across the same?

Thanks in advance.
Ian
