I generally save the document, then open it in Kurzweil directly. At one time, MS Word had a built in OCR engine, but I don't think that is part of the current edition.

Hey, Tracy, is it a scanned document that needs OCR?  That's usually when 
you would see the message "alert, document is empty."  If you have Open Book 
or Kurzweil, you can use the virtual printer and read it that way.  I know 
Open Book calls it Freedom Import, but I can't remember the one for 
Kurzweil.

Warm regards,

I received a PDF document.  In Windows Explorer, I see it has 638 KB.  When
I start Adobe, it says it has 2 pages, but, when Adobe finishes processing,
it says the document is empty.  I'm very confused. If it's empty, why does
it have 2 pages?  I think it's an important document I need to see, but I'm
not getting the data.
I'm using the latest Jaws, if it matters. I'm not sure which version of
Adobe I have, though.
