[nabs-l] adobe digital editions books

[Ashley Bramlett]

Hi,
accidently sent this to her; now on list.
I had  a similar issue. The navigation was unusable. I could not click on
the chapter links to get to where I needed to be.
Often jaws said blank when I attempted to scroll down to further text.

Adobe digital editions is common. I hope to hear other experiences. If it’s
a common problem, I'm going to try and see if NFB can work with adobe to fix
it. I will call the national office about this matter if it’s a widespread
problem.

Thanks.

Ashley

Hello Ashley,
I'm using DSM 5 on it. It is pretty important in counseling, I
frequently have to look certain parts of it.
At first it was difficult to adjust my self. I'm using it on my
computer with Windows 7.
I can't see the chapters as links. I even can't read the content page
of it. But I asked someone to read the content page and I wrote it in
a word doc.
The think I like most is that, with just one tab, I can come to the
area that I can type the page number and then hit enter. Then I'm on
that page.
good luck
