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 for words at the bottom of the file and jaws control
c only found the words when i turned off single page mode.

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 page. I picked
single page. Because I thought the telling if I wanted to read all pages even
in large documents where is sufficient. Now I can’t find the screen
Accessibility thing again to go through it. I’ve certainly done through the
menus and really can’t find it. Hopefully this jaws control F will do 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.

I have read the jaws help regarding using jaws with acrobat acrobat reader.
There was no mention made of using the find command, but since it works in
HTML documents on the Internet, I assumed it would also work in PDF files. So
if I do a control F, then type in a word or phrase I know is in a PDF
document, I expect to be moved there. That is not happening. What am I doing
wrong and how can I fix it?
