Morning all,
I use Adobe Acrobat 9 to create and read PDF files.  I chose it because it
is fully functional with the keyboard.  I like the ability to print files to
the PDF format.  Also there is a convert feature that allows many files to
be converted to the PDF format.  I use Openbook to for scanning documents
into MS Word.  The Openbook has the Freedom Import Printer that allows the
PDF file to be printed into a text file.  The screen reader, JAWS, works
very well with the Acrobat 9.  I have found the print to PDF feature to be
very useful when printing emails in to a PDF file for saving and/or sending
as an attachment to someone.  

I have researched other PDF creators, but they required the use of a mouse.
The Adobe Acrobat 9 is available in a trial version which allows for testing
for an individual's requirements.  

I hope that this helps.  For further details, please contact me offline at

Michael

Does any one know of a good OCR I as a blind person can use for these types
of files? RJ
