[Njabs-talk] Need help with Adobe

[Sean O'Keefe]

No, I don't think that will work. If the Adobe product that you are  
using is Adobe
Reader, then Zoomtext definitely will not read certain PDFs. Many PDFs  
are scanned images
that have not been run through some sort of character recognition.  
Adobe Reader does not
have this recognition ability. Adobe Acrobat does, but I don't think  
that's free. If you
have a scanner, there is a very good chance that you have some sort of  
application that
could convert the PDF to a more accessible format. Try to find where  
you installed the
scanner and for applications that have the letters "O C R" in the  
titles (I don't know
that much about computers, so the terminology may be off). If you  
don't have one of these
applications, you might be able to find a free OCR online. I did not  
look for one since
one came through my scanner, but I'm sure they're available.
