Thank you all for who replied.
CTRL + shift N did open the go to page dialogue but it seems like JAWS
is only recognizing the pdf as graphic... also the pdf document is
read protected so RoboBraille is not letting me convert using their
system.

Does anyone know how to make the document unprotected?

Thanks again.
