[Trainer-talk] ZipForms with JAWS

She is currently using JAWS 14 and Kurzweil 1,000. Both programs were
unable to access the PDF files. When we tried importing the file in
Kurzweil, we got a message saying: "The system could not load or open
those files as they are protected."
Any help is greatly appreciated!
