Try the following, if you have Openbook: 1. Highlight the PDF file, & press enter to open it using Adobe. 2. After Adobe opens it press, Alt + P, for the print menu. 3. In the list of printer options arrow down to the, Freedom Import Printer, & press enter. 4. It might take several seconds, but Openbook should wake up & scan / read the document. ----- Original Message ----- From: t.

I forwarded it to my brother, and after he opened it, he said that the 10 pages had been scanned, and not sent as a regular saved document, and would like to know if there's a way to let jaws read a scanned, PDF file? jaws 16,win 7 For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
