pdf, you navigate around the page and you'll find an intractable area where you
can read the text within the pdf. In a scanned pdf kind of document,, you'll
note the Toolbar, then if you VO-right one notch, VO
Dear Reggie,
I've just opened a pdf document to see what happens in Preview on my computer.
Now, provided the file is converted into text, i.e. not an image of the text,
the text is to the right of the toolbar. What is happening when you try to
navigate with vo+arrow keys? If you hear "toolb
Tim, I guess I don't know what I am looking for. When I opened the file it
seemed to be in a toolbar. What am I looking for to interact so I can try to

Although you can use an OCR program to OCR a pdf file and read the thing, I
