Reading a PDF with a screen reader
Acrobat supports assistive software and devices—such as screen readers and screen magnifiers—that enable visually
impaired users to interact with computer applications. When assistive software and devices are in use, Acrobat adds
temporary tags to open PDFs to improve their readability. Use the Accessibility Setup Assistant to improve how
Acrobat interacts with the types of assistive software and devices that you use. When using a screen reader, you can
change your reading settings for the current document by choosing Advanced > Accessibility > Change Reading
Options.
See the documentation for your assistive software or device. Or, contact the vendor for more information about system
requirements, compatibility requirements, and instructions for using this software or device with Acrobat.
For more information about using screen readers, see www.adobe.com/accessibility/pdfs/accessing-pdf-sr.pdf.
Read a PDF with Read Out Loud
The Read Out Loud feature reads aloud the text in a PDF, including the text in comments and alternate text
descriptions for images and fillable fields. In tagged PDFs, content is read in the order in which it appears in the
document's logical structure tree. In untagged documents, the reading order is inferred, unless a reading order has
been specified in the Reading preferences.
Read Out Loud uses the available voices installed on your system. If you have SAPI 4 or SAPI 5 voices installed from
text-to-speech or language applications, you can choose them to read your PDFs.
Note: Read Out Loud isn't a screen reader, and some operating systems may not support it.
Activate or deactivate Read Out Loud
You must activate Read Out Loud before you can use it. You can deactivate Read Out Loud to free system resources
and improve performance of other operations.
Do one of the following:
• Choose View > Read Out Loud > Activate Read Out Loud.
• Choose View > Read Out Loud > Deactivate Read Out Loud.
You can also use the Select Tool to locate text. Activate Read Out Loud, and then choose Tools > Select Tool. Use the
up/down and left/right arrow keys to navigate through the document. You can hear where the Select Tool has been
placed, such as a heading or paragraph.
