Hi Tony,

I am not sure of the exact compatibility situation.  I am using Adobe reader
7 with JAWS 7 and these seem fairly compatible.  However, this doesn't mean
that all pdf files will be readable.

If someone has a graphic image in the PDF doc you won't be able to read it.
I couldn't get sealed pdf to work either.  If a document is fairly simple it
can be very readable in pdf but I think you may just have to experiment and
see with the documents you want to read.
