You could go at this in several different ways. If you have a PDF, you can
always extract the text, into a Text file. You could also open a PDF into
Kurzweil. If it's a picture you can open it in Kurzweil and see what you
get. PDF's are the most by far frustrating thing ever.

Subject: [nabs-l] Reading PDF Documents with JAWS

Hello All,

Hope you are doing well.  I have a question for you.  In my experience
with pdf files it seems like JAWS is selective in which it wishes to
read and those it wishes not to read.  Have any others experienced
this?  How do we get the ones that don't want to be read to do so?  I
must admit I don't know much about PDFs.

Any suggestions, ideas, comments are appreciated.

Justin
