[nabs-l] Navigating Large PDF document

Whoa, those are giant docs! 

Well, what I suggest you do is convert the PDFs into Word docs or other
files with such formatting, then jump to that particular page. If that
particular page may not have the correct info that you're looking for that
was on that same page in the PDF, you can see if you can do a sentence
search to find it. 

BTW, not trying to be nosy or weird or anything, and I know I probably am
when I ask this, but are you from outside the US? Your name seems a little
foreign so I'm just wondering.

Hi all, I am writing to see if I can get some tips on how to read large pdf
documents.
My instructor has been giving out pdf files that are 300-400 pages long and
asking us to read select pages. (e.g., pages 50-53 then
90-93) What is the most efficient way to navigate these texts using JAWS or
NVDA?
Thank you in advance.
