[NFBCS] Online PDF questions

I'm trying to look at some PDF documents from my bank. When I select one
online, it opens, but it doesn't always display well. 

I see 2 checkboxes, one for text and the other labelled draw.  Do these make
a difference?  I tried checking text, but it didn't seem to change anything.


I also see a spinbox for size.  Does increasing the size display more on the
screen?

 

The document I'm trying to read today has many of the words run together.
I've seen this with PDF before.  As I recall, there's no way I can fix it.
Is that right?

 

When I downloaded the doc, hoping it would be easier to read than online,
and opened it, I expected to see the screen reader dialog pop up, asking me
how I wanted to read the thing, but it didn't.  I used alt-e to open edit,
then hit OK on the reading preferences, and then the dialog came up.  Can I
make it come up every time I open a PDF doc?

 

Lastly, some of these bank docs have headings.  Can I jump to a heading in
PDF, as I can in a website or in Word?  I'm using Jaws.

Thanks.

Tracy
