[blindLaw] Adobe Reader DC and JAWS

[David Andrews]

A six-page document is not a large document. If 
you were having stability problems with six-page 
documents, then there was something else going 
on.  I will not say that JAWS and Adobe is 
perfect, but I use them on a daily basis and have no chronic problems.
