On the next page, just search for the word, download until you find the download button. Below that you will find a checkbox for the Google toolbar, if you don't want it, then uncheck that box and go back to the download button, and press enter.

John, Just download version 8 and install it. On installation, adobe recognizes that you have adaptive technology installed and will ask you what kind, screen magnification or speech.

[JAWS-Users] Re: Adobe Reader 8 and JAWS
Hi Margaret, I am running Adobe Reader 8, with Jaws 6.2 on Windows XP, and have had no problems so far. The download process is somewhat different than previous versions, as it is actually a download manager for Adobe, instead of a stand-alone executeable for the reader. You have to pay atention during the download, as it includes the Google tool bar, and another Adobe product, which you can opt out of. Here is the link for the download: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html Look for the, continue button.

[JAWS-Users] Re: Adobe Reader 8 and JAWS
Just remember that while Adobe Reader does have accessibility _settings_, the screen access technology companies still have to make their individual programs work with it. The problem with using Acrobat Reader 8 with JAWS 6.2 may be that JAWS 6.2 wasn't around at the time of; and, hence, couldn't be tested with; Acrobat Reader 8. This is not true of JAWS 8.0. I get concerned about people who don't keep their screen access systems current because of the cost, yet who insist on installing the very latest versions of some utility or other because it's free. In effect, this is just asking for trouble, since the screen access system simply can't be expected to work with programs that were developed years after it came on the market, nor should it be. The single most important program you have on your computer after the operating system is your version of JAWS and either keep it as current as possible or don't add anything new to your computer and then expect an old version of JAWS to work with the new program. - Original Message - From: Robert S.
