Dear Vincent,
There are two possibilities here: You may have an image on the first few
pages but text on subsequent pages. If this is the case, you could select
the "goto" option on the View menu and jump forward to something like the
5th or 6th page. If that is still blank, then you very likely have an image
PDF file. This can be read using the Kurzweil OCR program. Indeed you could
use any OCR program to convert it to text but the Kurzweil is very friendly
to screen reader usage.
All the best,
Cearbhall
