To elaborate my problem, I have to finally proof read pages for a magazine
before they're committed to Quark Express files for pre-press and printing. It
simply doesn't seem possible with Jaws V8 and PDF? I'd imagine Quark is even
less likely to be a runner? does anyone have any suggestions or ideas? Of
course, the whoe point of proofing is accuracy otherwise I'd print them and
run them through K1000.

Ian,
As Adrian says, resolution isn't known to affect the accessibility of a
PDF. The font face may be a factor though. Some fonts can be harder for a
screen reader to pick up and interpret, particularly the more ornate ones. Just
a thought.
Regards,
Tink.

Does the resolution of a PDF file make any difference to Jaws 8['s ability to
read it?
