Mike, I had the same question about the speed.
I do like the location of where your message was sent from.

Hi Rich,
You need to disable protected view first to get it to work well with Jaws.
Do the following:
1. From either your desktop or start menu, press enter on Adobe. The
Adobe
window is now open, press control + K, to open preferences. Another way
to
get to preferences is after pressing enter on the Adobe shortcut, press
Alt
+ E, for the edit menu, arrow up to preferences, & press enter.
3. When preferences opens you will be in a tree view and should be on the
General page, if not arrow up or down until you have General highlighted.
It
is #4 of 29. Tab until you find a checkbox called enable protected mode
at
startup, uncheck it, choose yes on the warning you will get to continue.
You need to look at 2 more settings so, tab until you have General
highlighted again.
4. With General highlighted, press the letter I, until you have Internet
highlighted.
5. Tab to, Display PDF in browser, if this box is checked press the
spacebar
to uncheck it.
6. Tab to connection speed combobox, arrow up / down for the setting that
best matches your Internet Providers speed.
7. Tab to the okay button, press enter to close preferences & save your
changes, & press Alt + F4 to close Adobe.
If I have missed something or if there is something that should be added,
would someone please jump in & correct me?!
Take care.
Mike

Sorry for my ignorance, but, how do I do this?
Everything was working fine a few days ago.

You have to use the adobe reader settings to get the Internet working
right. Have it open in separate window to keep jaws from crashing IE.

Hi all;
I have XP and13.0.
I am not able to read/listen to PDF's.
When I open a pdf document either in e mail or, on the web,I can
not get JAWS to read the document.
I've tried searching the menu bar for properties and assistance. It
seems like all my settings are okay.
I tried to download Adobe and was told I have a more functional
version already installed.
The first time this happened, I heard Adobe say, "preparing" the
document but nothing followed.
Now, I don't even get this message.
Thanks for any help.
Rich
