Thank you for that tip. I did change that. We will see if there are browsers it works for.

Certain online forms force you to use the web browser to work properly but in most cases for documents you just want to read this should work fine. It is also possible the accessibility wizard has moved. They keep sticking it on different menus.

I actually don't even care if they open in a browser as long as there is a way to read them. I don't want to use convenient OCR for all of them. Activating the parent document button doesn't work or seem to do anything. Should we be using a different default reader′
