The most luck I have had with PDF files is to use the "export to
text", "save as text", or similar option in the PDF viewing
program. I have never worked with images, but I am leaning toward
them being ignored completely. A better way to go may be to find
a PDF to HTML translation program so that KeyWeb can open it and
display the alt tags, if there are any, correctly.
As far as KS goes, I understand that Windows CE 4.x and below
does not support PDF viewing. If and when that glorious day comes
on which the BN family gets CE 5.x or, even better, 6x, PDF
support may be possible. (This is also the problem with Power
Point files and the RAM issues on current units).
Have a great day,
Alex

Subject: [Braillenote] Pdf files with immages
Hello list members:
I have a cell phone manual in pdf file format. The manual is
designed so
when key presses are described they use an immage instead of
text. Is there
any way to convert the file so immages are able to be converted
into text?
Maybe by the alt tag of the immage? I get sentences like this:
To access voice dialing, press and hold . for two seconds. If I
sent the pdf
file to [EMAIL PROTECTED], would it convert correctly? I tried
converting
the file using adobe reader seven and it didn't fix the immage. I
emailed
andrew riden about possibly integrating pdf file support into
keySoft but
haven't gotten a response back. Joseph, kevven, and any others
who have
asked for the SD driver, I'm asking Andrew to send a copy to
the list and
make it available on the hw website so anyone can get it. My
email program
isn't working properly with attachments, it says the files are
attached but
they're not being sent.
Thanks:
Kendell
