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

[Dr. Denise M Robinson]

Maria
If Jaws says it is empty...you can do many things
One, alt f to file and go down to save as other and choose text and it
saves as an rtf
you can also turn off jaws, do a ctrl a, ctrl c and paste into word, turn
jaws back on
next for really nasty images that refuse to do all...yes you can save and
put thru openbook or kurzweil
but if you have jaws 16..the new ocr---insert space, o, d is
fantastic...here is a video on it--will open in virtual viewer, copy and
paste into word and start editing away-- watch on youtube:
