Subject: [Trainer-talk] question about PDF documents that will not display

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone would know what I can do to get JAWS to read a
very long PDF document?  It keeps saying that it is an empty document.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Maria

The greatness comes not when things are always going well for you. 

But the greatness comes when you're really tested, 

when you take some knocks, some disappointments, when sadness comes... 

Because only if you've been in the deepest valley 

can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain.
