Mine was doing that, but only if I chose "read all." So I started selecting the 
second choice and it seems to be working.

I can't even get the document.  It just keeps saying converting document, 
then it says nothing, and the computer won't talk.  Pam.

Hey guys,
Well, having not used adobe in so long, to say i'm discouraged is a huge
uhnder statement.  Why can't this thing just work?  What am i doing
wrong, i an not navigate this document to save my life.
Guys correct me if i'm wrong, but i'm assuming the following.

1 to get to the top of any pdf document you do control and home
2 to navigate throughout a document you use the up and down arrows and
control page up and control page down.  Someone mentioned something that
to get to a list of bookmarks in a document, you hit f6, and all my
adobe is saying is blank page edit.  I'm hitting control tab, nothing.
What is going on here?  This shouldn't be this complicated.  Any ideas?

RE: very frustrated with pdf files

2015-11-23 Thread Steve Jacobson via Talk 
Often, I have found that if things seem to get stuck loading a PDF document
that closing Acrobat and opening it again will correct the problem.  It is
very annoying, but I do not know which software is causing the problem.  

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Not converting document, processing document is what it says, then it

Accessing PDF files can be complicated and probably the second most complex 
task behind interacting with Web pages. Especially when dealing with a poorly 
designed PDF. You will need to become more familiar with both Adobe Reader and 
Browse Mode to succeed with the task at hand.

Hey guys,
Is there any sort of explaination on pdf files with window-eyes?  Can i 
send over the pdf file for you to take a look at it to get some input on it?
