Just be sure you are interacting with the document itself. Check Preview 
settings and make sure yit scrolls the document continuously. This is not a 
guarantee that VO-a will read from beginning to end though. You might have to 
kick it along as some PDFs are simply not formatted properly from my 
experience. You can try to open the PDF in Microsoft Word if you have it on 
your system.
