I tried the link, it converted the file, but it put all sorts of symbols and letters and its barely readable with a screen reader, I will have the rehab centre for the blind here get rid of all that extra garbage thanks for the link.

Hi Simon,

There's a website called, Convert Files, that can convert the file for you
into a text file.  But first, there's a link for a tutorial below that
explains how to use the website:

Below is the URL for the website:

HTH
Take care.
Mike

Okay, well I can't really decide what John's vision I'm going to get,
apparently that's up to whatever at the rehab center will get for me. And
whatever they will cover. So I guess I'm out of luck there.

Ahhhh, okay, only JAWS 16 Beta will actually to OCR on a PDF document.
That is why you are having issues.
So with JAWS 15 you can not read this document.

Hi Robin,

1 slight mistake & I know it was a typo.  You said, Once it says empty
document then do a JAWS key plus the letter O. Then tap the letter d for
document. It should then convert the text image into readable text.
But, we
know you meant to say to press the Jaws key + spacebar, then press, O,
then,
D.

Take care.
Mike

Using JAWS 16 Beta...
Once it says empty document then do a JAWS key plus the letter O. Then
tap
the letter d for document. It should then convert the text image into
readable text.

Convenient OCR works in Jaws 15 of course, but if he is getting a blank
OCR
document, which means it is an image, you need Jaws 16 for document
recognition.  Jaws-key, with space, O for Convenient OCR, and D for
document
recognition.

Keep in mind that the document OCR only works with JAWS 16.

Does the document have to be opened? It's a PDF.
