I was trying to get this to read the document at once. It's for a digital  
voice recorder i'll be using.

Hey Randy.

I'd keep Acrobat Pro around if you have it. The reason is that it has a ton
of useful conversion features, and also OCR built in, for those annoying
scanned image PDF documents.

To read the user manual, you can use Adobe Reader. If this is not working
out for you (i.e. it has trouble loading the whole document at once and
crashes your screen-reader), you could try a program called Qread. It is a
light and fast reader designed specifically with screen-readers in mind. I'm
not always quick to jump to support such things, but in this case, the
program is very good and worth the $30 or $40 price tag.

However, not knowing exactly what problems you are having reading the manual
-- it's difficult to say whether this program would benefit you for this
specific purpose. Some manuals are, in fact, rendered as scanned image PDFs
online. If that's the case, you would need to run OCR software on the file
before you will be able to read it. Acrobat can do this for you. But it all
comes down to the basic question: what is the difficulty?

Hi everyone. I got windows10 jaws2018 and some adobe things i don't know how
to work actually.

I got adobe reader acrobat x pro which I can't make heads or tails out of.
and, Adobe reader XI.

Which is better, or shall I uninstall those things?
I'm trying to read a user manual.

Good Morning 

If you are just looking to read a document such as a manual I would suggest
Adobe Reader. Acrobat is designed for editing and formatting PDFs which is
more than you are looking to do. If it is a manual make sure that when the
reading order dialog box comes up when you open the document in Adobe that
it reads the entire document at once.
