I never could get that feature to work for me.

Howdy Sheez,

What if you read the PDF file with the Jaws OCR feature instad of Openbook? Would this possibly read the file better? I'm just throwing this out there
since I don't use Widows 10 / Edge as my main computer / browser.

Take care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

What I did to read a PDF was saved it to the desktop giving it an unordinary
name.  I chose Weird.
Then launching Open Book, I went to Open Document and selected the PDF
option.
Next I looked on the desktop and found the file named Weird.
After I pressed Enter, Open Book started reading it.

I also tried turning on Narrator in Edge, but I wasn't able to stop Narrator from reading the whole document. In other words, I wasn't able to read word
by word nor line by line.

Hopefully this'll work for you.  Or better yet, maybe someone will share a
bit of JAWS magic with us to make it easier to read PDF's.

I am not sure!
You could make sure that the virtual PC cursor is on, and try pressing F7
to use carrot browsing!

Thank you Dave.
Edge opened the PDF via default, I was just not able to read the text. I
should have been more clear.
Any tips on getting Edge to read the text?

Hi!
On the PDF, press the applications key or Shift+F10. Arrow down to open
with
sub menu and press right arrow. Arrow down to Edge, and press enter.
Your PDF, even a scanned image will open in Edge, and after a minute or
so,
you will be able to read it just like a word document. I use Edge to read
all of my PDFs now.
