Re: [orca-list] Trouble accessing Acrobat in Ubuntu 9.04 x64



Actually, OO opens PDFs with impress, even if you open them in writer it is a presentation view which does not read well with Orca.

Try this: Open the file with your word processor, openoffice.org word
processor from the applications menu under the office settings and see
if OO can read it. I don't have any pdf documents right now to try this
with, but it's only a suggestion since you can save documents in pdf
format with that program.



Hope this helps.

Hi.

I'm trying to improve my listening skills, so I thought I'd use Orca
to listen to a few books.  I have some books in PDF format, but
Acrobat is not accessible to Orca.  I pulled up Accerciser, and
Acrobat isn't even listed as an application.  Is this because I'm
running 64-bit Ubuntu, and Acrobat is 32?  Is there a more accessible
PDF reader?

Thanks,
Bill

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
