[GUI-Talk] "Open Parent Document"

[Lloyd Rasmussen]

The AWARE web app creates a report and then is supposed to print it to PDF. 
Acrobat DC opens up during the process, showing its usual options, but 
nothing but the cryptic title is readable. I'm going to look on one of the 
network drives that is connected to this computer and check the creation 
dates of files, if I find any. This is not the behavior we had on an earlier 
laptop Judy was using; we had to replace the laptop when it refused to look 
for any Wi-Fi access points when I changed our router. So far nobody at DORS 
seems to know how this problem was solved in the past. Judy wants these 
files so she can e-mail them, and in some cases re-read them. We used this 
case management web app   with Chrome on a previous computer, but this 
causes other problems, I am told.
It's a wonder that these web apps work at all, and I'm afraid we are going 
to see more and more of them in work settings. A web browser puts one more 
layer of complexity between the information and the screen reader that we 
need to use for nonvisual access.

Hi Lloyd,

Try opening the document in whatever Adobe product she is using and not in
the browser.
Best,
Alan

my wife Judy uses the AWARE case management system for her job as a rehab
counsellor in Maryland. When she needs to print a plan or some other case
notes to PDF, she cannot find the PDF document, and only an "open parent
document" button pops up, which has no noticeable effect. AWARE is a
web-based application, and she is using it with JAWS 2020 and Internet
Explorer 11. Any ideas?
