Re: [JAWS-Users] Another Observation About System Restore

Hello Tom,

If the CTRL with 6 doesn't work you might also try using the Reset View
button under the view tab.  

Take care.

Hello, all.

 

Ok, so, I exited Outlook, and got back in, and my Outlook folders no longer
display correctly, even after having done the system restore, which
apparently only corrected the problem temporarily.

 

I'm now really starting to pull out what little hair I have with this
problem.

 

Can anyone help me figure out what is going on here?

 

Sorry to keep this going, but it is really getting frustrating.

 

May have to call FS in the morning.

Hello Tom,

I don't know if this will work but try using CTRL with 6 and see if your
folder list appears.  It is possible to reset folders in the view by using a
switch with the executable but this would involve a number of steps.
Hopefully, the CTRL with the number 6 (the 6 above the y) will work.  

Take care.

[JAWS-Users] System Restore Question

[Tom Behler]

Hello, everyone.

 

As I noted about an hour ago, doing a system restore solved my problem with
the folder display list in Outlook 2016.

 

However, for some reason, the first time I tried it, the system restore back
to two days ago did not stay.

 

When I got back into system restore, the "Undo system restore" option was
checked, and I could not get down lower on the screen to check the option
that lists restore points.  I could find the option with my Jaws cursor, but
could not access or check it using the P C cursor.

 

I had to seek sighted assistance to get to this option.

 

Does anyone have a work-around for this issue?

 

Hopefully, my earlier system restore point will stay this time.

 

Thanks all for your patience.

 

Dr.  Tom Behler from Michigan

Hi Jim,

Here you go:
Hi All,

For those new to Adobe Reader DC, try the settings changes below to see if
they help with its performance.

Note that there are links with the Security Enhanced section to explain the
consequences of unchecking items there, and you may want to find out what
they have to say.

1. Open Adobe Reader DC from your desktop or start menu icons, go into
preferences with control-k. JAWS lands on an item in a tree view.
If you have been here before, it will be the item you last opened. Arrow
down to Security Enhanced. Note that this is the item below "Security."
Then uncheck these 2 options, the 2nd option is not necessary to uncheck
but, optional:
Enable Protected Mode at startup, needs to be unchecked.

Enable Enhanced Security, does not need to be unchecked.
Note. When making changes in the Security Enhanced section, you will be told
that Adobe needs to be restarted, but you can wait to finish the other
changes first.

2. Launch the Edit menu, Alt + E, scroll down to the Accessibility submenu
and open it. Scroll down to the Set-up Assistant and press enter. The Set-Up
Assistant has five screens, but the only change you have to make is on the
last, screen 5 of 5. Go through all the screens, pressing spacebar on "Next"
in each instance, until you reach the fifth and final screen. Here, tab to
the check box labeled "Display PDF documents in the web browser" and make
sure it is unchecked. It may be checked by default. Then tab to the Okay
button, & press enter. You can now close the  program & give it a try on a
PDF file.

Take care.

[JAWS-Users] Outlook 2016 Folder List Display Problem Solved

[Tom Behler]

   Hello, everyone.

 

Well, I did a system restore to a restore point about two days ago, and now
my Outlook folders display properly again via the shift-tab key.

 

So, thanks to those who helped me work through this issue.

 

And, I now know how to do a system restore, so I've learned something new
today!  (smile)

It's almost like Jaws is stuck in my current list view, with no way to get

I have checked my layout  settings under the settings view, and all seems as

Re: [JAWS-Users] Strange Outlook 2016 problem

[Tom Behler]

Hi,  Adrian.

I tried to maximize the screen when in Outlook, and not in an actual
message, but it did not make any difference.

The strange thing is that I can get to my folder list via control Y with no
problem.

It's almost like my folder list view that I get to via shift tab is somehow
collapsed, or, perhaps, not expanded.

I have no clue how this happened, especially since my e-mail was working
just fine earlier this afternoon.

I think it is some sort of a Jaws issue.

I'll keep checking here for possible remedies.

In the meantime, I can always use Control Y.

Hello, all.

 

This afternoon, I tried accessing my list of folders in Outlook 2016, and am
suddenly unable to access the folder list.

 

I can get someone sighted to access my Outlook folders via the mouse, but
whenever I shift Tab from my message list view to my folder list, I get a
current mailbox submenu item, and I can't move anywhere with my arrow keys.

 

It's almost like Jaws is stuck in my current list view, with no way to get
back to my list of Outlook folders.

 

I have checked my layout  settings under the settings view, and all seems as
it should be.  My folder view is set to normal, the reading pane is set to
off, and the to do bar is off.

 

I'm at a loss as to what to do here to get things back to the way they
should be.

 

Thanks for any help anyone can provide.

 

Dr.  Tom Behler from Michigan

Hi,
If you get an empty document, that means that the PDF cannot be read with a 
screen reader  until OCR is done on it. With JAWS, just press insert+space 
and press o then d, and JAWS will do OCR on the PDF document. With NVDA, 
there is a OCR add-on that will do the same thing. You need to download and 
install that OCR add-on for NVDA and then it will do OCR on the PDF. Most 
PDFs are not created to be read with a screen reader, because they are a 
picture of text instead of text itself. this is why OCR needs to be done on 
the PDF even with Adobe Products.

Take care, and I hope you can read it now with the info I just gave you.
David Moore

Doubtless, this issue has been addressed countless times. However, I
just installed Adobe Reader DC on my w10 laptop with JAWS 17.  When I
open one of my pdf documents I get the empty document alert.  Like
Ronald, I need to know how to remedy the situation.

Hi Jim,

Here you go:
Hi All,

For those new to Adobe Reader DC, try the settings changes below to see if
they help with its performance.

Note that there are links with the Security Enhanced section to explain the
consequences of unchecking items there, and you may want to find out what
they have to say.

1. Open Adobe Reader DC from your desktop or start menu icons, go into
preferences with control-k. JAWS lands on an item in a tree view.
If you have been here before, it will be the item you last opened. Arrow
down to Security Enhanced. Note that this is the item below "Security."
Then uncheck these 2 options, the 2nd option is not necessary to uncheck
but, optional:
Enable Protected Mode at startup, needs to be unchecked.

Enable Enhanced Security, does not need to be unchecked.
Note. When making changes in the Security Enhanced section, you will be told
that Adobe needs to be restarted, but you can wait to finish the other
changes first.

2. Launch the Edit menu, Alt + E, scroll down to the Accessibility submenu
and open it. Scroll down to the Set-up Assistant and press enter. The Set-Up
Assistant has five screens, but the only change you have to make is on the
last, screen 5 of 5. Go through all the screens, pressing spacebar on "Next"
in each instance, until you reach the fifth and final screen. Here, tab to
the check box labeled "Display PDF documents in the web browser" and make
sure it is unchecked. It may be checked by default. Then tab to the Okay
button, & press enter. You can now close the  program & give it a try on a
PDF file.

Take care.

Go to preferences with control-k, then arrow down to accessibility. There
may be other choices there, too. In addition, here are the instructions for
opening PDF files outside the browser.

Go to the Edit menu (alt-e) and arrow up to the Accessibility submenu. 
Select Set-up Assistant. 
On page 5 of 5, the last page, of the Set-up Assistant is a check box
labeled "Display PDF documents in the web browser." It should be unchecked
so that the web page is processed directly by Adobe Reader.

Re: [JAWS-Users] adobe acrobat reader dc

[Jim Pursley]

I use Open Book most of the time to read scanned docs as well as 
security protected docs.  Best for really long docs, too, as JAWS OCR 
may take some time to load.  Open Book wipes out all links, though.  Why 
JAWS OCR does not wipe out links is a bit of a mystery as they both have 
the same or similar OCR engines.  Open Book may add some treatment that 
JAWS OCR does not.

Hi All,

they help with its performance.

 Note that there are links with the Security Enhanced section to explain the 
consequences of
unchecking items there, and you may want to find out what they have to say.

1. Open Adobe Reader DC from your desktop or start menu icons, go into 
preferences with control-k. JAWS lands on an item in a tree view.
If you have been here before, it will be the item you last opened. Arrow
down to Security Enhanced. Note that this is the item below "Security."
Then uncheck these 2 options, the 2nd option is not necessary to uncheck

Enable Protected Mode at startup, needs to be unchecked.

Enable Enhanced Security, does not need to be unchecked.
Note. When making changes in the Security Enhanced section, you will be told
that Adobe needs to be restarted, but you can wait to finish the other
changes first.

2. Launch the Edit menu, Alt + E, scroll down to the Accessibility submenu 
and open
it. Scroll down to the Set-up Assistant and press enter. The Set-Up
Assistant has five screens, but the only change you have to make is on the
last, screen 5 of 5. Go through all the screens, pressing spacebar on "Next"
in each instance, until you reach the fifth and final screen. Here, tab to
the check box labeled "Display PDF documents in the web browser" and make 
sure it
is unchecked. It may be checked by default. Then tab to the Okay button, & 
press enter. You can now close the  program & give it a try on a PDF file.

You need to click on the link. However, if Adobe announces it is ready to 
prepare the file for screenreader access, I press escape to stop that process 
and then invoke the JAWS OCR function.

Thank you for contacting Freedom Scientific technical Support. 

I recommend you contact the Microsoft accessibility team for assistance
setting Adobe Reader as your default PDF reader instead of the Windows 10
PDF viewer. At this point, you can set Adobe Reader not to allow access in
web pages with the instructions below:

A. Using the Accessibility Set Up Assistant
When you launch a PDF the first time, the accessibility set up assistant
opens. If the accessibility wizard has already run, do the following to open
it:
1. Press ALT+E to open the Edit menu.
2. Press Y to select Accessibility submenu.
3. Press ENTER on Set Up Assistant. The first page of this five page dialog
box opens. The default choice is fine, press ENTER to move to the next page.
4. On the second page you can change things if you wish, but by default it
is OK. Press ENTER to move to page three.
5. On the third page you can change things if you wish, but by default it is
OK. Press ENTER to move to page four.
6. On the fourth page, if you want to use the list of links, list of
headings, and the JAWS find command so on to access long documents, change
the radio button from
"For large documents, only read the currently visible pages"
to 
"Read the entire document at once."
If you do not make this change, in long documents JAWS only sees the links
and headings on the current page. Additionally, JAWS can only search the
current page with the JAWS find command. If you do select read the entire
document at once, it may take a few seconds longer to process large
documents, but it is worth it to be able to see the links and  headings in
the entire document, or to search the entire document with the JAWS find.
7. Press ENTER to move to page five of the Set Up Assistant.
8. If the check box for Reopen documents to the last viewed page is checked,
you may want to uncheck this. It is a personal preference. TAB through until
you reach the check box for "Display PDF documents in the web browser," and
uncheck it.
9. Press ENTER to activate the Done button.

B. Additional changes in Adobe Reader XI preferences.
1. Press CTRL+K to open the Adobe Reader XI preferences.
2. In the Categories list on the left side of the dialog box, choose
Accessibility.
3. Press TAB to move to the item, Show Portfolios in Files mode (not checked
by default) - check this.
4. Press TAB to move back to the Categories list and choose Security
(Enhanced).
5. Press TAB to move to Enable Protected Mode at startup (checked by
default) - uncheck this.
6. Press TAB to move to the OK button, and activate it with the SPACEBAR.

NOTE: The option to view PDF documents in the browser is no longer found in
the Preferences. You must use the Set Up Assistant to find this

The Microsoft accessibility team can be reached at:

Doubtless, this issue has been addressed countless times. However, I just
installed Adobe Reader DC on my w10 laptop with JAWS 17.  When I open one of
my pdf documents I get the empty document alert.  Like Ronald, I need to
know how to remedy the situation.

Re: [JAWS-Users] adobe acrobat reader dc

[Mr. Ed]

Hi,
When do you do these Jaws keys strokes. Do you do them after you click on
the pdf link in IE or do you do them after Adobe Reader DC has the PDF file
open?

Maria, this is different from the previous query, and I can answer this one
fast. You should try FS's OCR feature: JAWS key+spacebar, then o. for the
entire document, press d after o. It may take a few moments, but once the
OCR conversion has completed, a new window will open with the result.

Re: [JAWS-Users] adobe acrobat reader dc

[Jim Pursley]

The links are indeed available in a JAWS OCR doc, according to tech 
support, while if Open Book is used with the Freedom Import Printer they 
are not.  But, so far as I know, "empty document" only shows when a pdf 
is scanned.  So it appears that Adobe Reader 15 DC works as 11 did?


why is this important to me?  I'm still running Adobe Reader 11 and 
considering upgrading.

Are the links that might be in a pdf original preserved with JAWS OCR.

Thank you Adrian.  I just wish Adobe would handle accessibility without 
third party programs having to do it.
