[nfbcs] PDF as picture

[Steve Jacobson]

That would not give her access to all the other amounts that are likely on her check with which she might be concerned.  However, it is possible that the information is available electronically within her company.  But like Jim, I'm wondering what she would use for scanning her check in terms of the OCR program.  Kurzweil 1000, Finereader, and Omnipage will all recognize text from a graphical PDF.  I have not had very good luck with the JFW OCR function, either.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Can you get your check directly deposited into your bank account? That way, you could log in online and see the amount of your check.

Can you let your employer know that it is not accessible. I mean it's your pay check that should be an accommodation

I get my paychecks electronically, and, until recently, I could look at them as a PDF.  They're still a PDF, but now it appears to be a picture, because all Jaws says is "graphic".  I tried using the Jaws OCR on the graphic, and it read enough to tell me it was indeed my paycheck, but not enough for me to get the info I wanted.  Is there any way to get better info off one of these PDF pictures?  Am I going to have to print the darn thing on the network printer, for all the world to see, and then scan the printout?  It's all I can think of.

Tracy
