Re: [JAWS-Users] PDF Documents
Hi Pam, To quickly fix this, find any PDF file on File Explorer, press the APPLICATIONS key to open the context menu, go to Open With and select the Choose Another Program option. When prompted about which program do you want to use to open the file, find Adobe Acrobat Reader DC in the list. Before pressing ENTER, tab to the checkbox to always use this program for opening PDF files and press SPACEBAR to check it. Then press TAB and ENTER to activate the OK button, and that's all. Hope it helps! -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Pam Sent: Thursday, February 15, 2018 4:37 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] PDF Documents Hi When I try to open a PDF document it opens up in Microsoft edge and it appears to be blank.

Re: [JAWS-Users] PDF Documents
Hi Pam, With the PDF file highlighted only, don't open it, open your context menu with the application key or Shift + F10. Find the, Open With, option & click on that to see if Adobe is in the list of programs to choose from. If Adobe or Reader DC isn't there, check your Program Files & Program Files X86 folders on the root of your operating system drive to make sure it's installed. Take care. Mike.

Remove it and reload it if it is not showing up in default programs. When you load it, it should giv eyou the ability to make it default. You can also try to use the applications key and see if it will give you the ability to choose acrobat dc toopen the file before deleting it and reloading it.
