Hello, There are extensive discussions on reading pdf files and many other windows applications and accessibility issues in a free book on www.bookshare.org
The books is The Windows Screen Reader Primer by David Kingsbury. This is free and you need not be a member. A few days back Homiyar Mobedji provided the link to this list. This is a huge book with nearly 800 pages. But the topics are well organised in chapters and subtopics under different heading levels. I have already covered half of the book and I am learning many new things from here. Read it in parts everyday and you may find something new some day. Well, it has a discussion on accessibility issues of zoom meeting also.

Press application key on the file and arrow down to the option convenient OCR with jaws, and press entr on it. Allow a few seconds and jaws should start reading. If it does not work, then you should use advance versions of adobe acrobat reader or jaws. Normally jaws reads any text pdf file. The OCR feature is required for scanned pdf files only.
