I think there is still the bug in JAWS 17 where it is not reading/finding images in PDF documents. I'm finding the same issue in Acrobat/Reader DC that existed in Acrobat/Reader XI. So this is a JAWS thing.

Cheers, Karen

Subject: [WebAIM] PDF: Discrepancy with JAWS and NVDA

Hi List,

I am facing a strange issue with the PDF files produced by Adobe InDesign.
The images in the document are with the appropriate alternate text.
NVDA is recognizing the images. However, JAWS is not recognizing any images in the document.

Please suggest is there any solution for the same.


Thanks & Regards,
Mohith B. P.
