You're not off topic. Sometimes in Adobe Reader focus is not in the proper frame where you can tab to the start button. If so use IF then you can tab to the start button. It also depends how the pdf was created. Sometimes if it is just a scanned document it will not read. You can use a OCR program to read it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Massey via Talk" <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> To: <soaringeag...@comcast.net>; "'Window-Eyes Discussion List'" <talk@lists.window-eyes.com>

Hi, Jo.  I think I can answer one of your questions.  You are correct when
you mention that you hear alert, document being processed, and that it just sits there. You have to tab to the start document button or whatever it is called and press it. P d f documents don't start reading automatically. I
hope others will be able to answer your questions.

I'm really frustrated with pdf documents.  I use WE 9, Windows 7
64-bit on a laptop, have Adobe Reader xi and I'm not sure of the correct
settings for reading  without sight.  I've tried using the setup assistant
which helps some but I also realize that scanned documents won't read at
all.   Do I need Acrobat.com or not and how might I convert a document or
newsletter into a Word document for Office 2010?
Adobe Reader often says, "Alert, document being processed!" And never does anything but sit there! I don't know if there are helpful apps for this or something else but I should be able to at least read the text even with some
images in the document, right?  I mean, if it's not a scanned document.
I thank you for help from snowy MN,
Jo Taliaferro
