In Jaws, adding the Jaws key adds another parameter to the keystroke. Hence,
CONTROL+F is enhanced when adding the jaws key and showing INSERT+CONTROL+F.
This works on both laptop and desktop keyboards.

Also make sure if you want to use the JAWS find command properly you have
the entire document loaded.
Yes, ctrl-f is Adobe's find command. It has some accessibility issue that
admittedly I don't quite understand. As mentiond above, you can use the JAWS
find command instead.

Me, too. But the control-f Microsoft command in Word can be useful. For
example, it will find strings of characters, while the JAWS search finds only
whole words.

I've generally used the insert+control+f command across all programs as it
seems to be nearly universal for Jaws as opposed to keeping track on which
applications may and may not allow the control+f command to find something.

Mary, I find that three-key combo works in a number of places. For example, it
functions differently enough in MS Word to make it sometimes a useful
alternative to MS's control-f find command. With PDF files, it's the only find
command that works while using JAWS.

Mary, in addition to the accessibility area you find when you press control-k
for preferences, try pressing alt-e for edit, then arrowing up to accessibility
and going through the multi-page dialog there.

if its the newest adobe dc its in the edit pull down in accessibility.
1 problem though. if you have a large document it will take a long time for it
to load.
i tried a 174 page document and it took 2 minutes to load and about 20 seconds
before jaws started talking
i also tried some searches
I couldn’t find that setting either to double check it. When you first start
Adobe acrobat reader, you do get that Accessibility wizard. I was a little bit
confused with that, but I did tell it to read all pages. But then there was
something about should I display continuously or as a single
Thank you for this information. Where should I have looked to have found that?
Doess this work in other instances if control f doesn’t work? What is the
difference between control F and control jaws key f?

i don't know where the setting is. but you have to set adobe to load the entire
document into memory. the default is to load one page at a time. if it is set
this way jaws will only find text that is showing on the screen.;

What works is adding the JAWS key to the control-f command, all three at once.
