Hi, I navigate to the pdf wherever it is located on my computer, then open it. My default app for PDFs is Preview so it opens Preview. I then press cmd-2 if I've not already done so in an earlier read of the PDF which puts it into Single-page mode. I can then navigate with VO-right arrow to the text area and either let it read the entire page or Interact with the text area then read word by word, line by line or whatever VO method I use in any other app. I do not use QuickNav at all in this process. QuickLook is not Preview, they are separate entities.
