Chris, after installing Acrobat Reader and accessibility assistant should appear. Just follow the instructions in the wizard, and hopefully you'll be able to view PDF documents. Hope that helps, and good luck with your studies.

Hi. I've never really had any luck with PDF documents, but now I have no choice. I'm going to install the latest version of Acrobat Reader, but I'll need to know if there are specific settings I will have to make so it will be JAWS friendly. My understanding was it could be made to be so with some accessibility settings somewhere? Also, is there a way to save it as text? That would even be better. Any possible way I can save a PDF file and read it, as well as copy and paste from it, will work. I'll have some PDF documents that I must read and then copy into a Word document for a college class this week. In fact, by Tuesday. I need a crash course in this because this is very last minute and I'm forced to do research via PDF documents from my college's data base. Keep in mind I know virtually nothing about how to use Acrobat Reader, but it's high time I learn. Thanks, Chris Feist - The one and only!
