Re: Orca acrobat

[Joanmarie Diggs <j-diggs comcast net>]

Reading's not there, eh?  Yikes!  If you select Accessibility in the
tree table, leave focus in the tree table, and start Down Arrowing, what
do you find?  I have a bunch of things:

* Forms
* Full Screen
* General
* Identity
* International
* Internet
* JavaScript
* Measuring
* Page Display
* Proxy Settings
* Reading (which is what we're after)
* Search
* Security
* SendMail
* Spelling
* Startup
* Trust Manager
* Units
* Weblink

I'm curious as to how many you're missing.  The package I am using is
also 7.0.8, but I got it directly from Adobe:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html

Take care.
