[JAWS-Users] Unable to read Microwave manual with JAWS

2009-09-16 Thread Francis E. Khan
A friend scanned a GE microwave manual and saved the file as a 2003 Word document. However, when I tried to read the file I was informed by Jaws that there were 441 objects and when I used the down arrow cursor to read other material I heard Jaws say Section 1 and it stopped at Section 4.

You could probably Google for it and get it in PDF. Alternatively, use control-shift-o to find the objects and delete them one by one. They're probably what's in the way of the text. At 07:40 AM 9/16/2009, you wrote: A friend scanned a GE microwave manual and saved the file as a 2003 Word
