Accessible ways to read pdf documents with screen readers on windows

Hello,

Soon I will be reading a lot of pdf documents, I would like to know what are
the accessible ways that are convenient for doing it on windows with NVDA or
Jaws.

I know 2 methods:

1. To open each pdf file in chrome and read it.
2. To convert each pdf document into word using Abby Finereader and
reading.

But I would like to read pdf documents themselves without converting to the
word format when it's possible.

I will really appreciate your suggestions.

Thank you!
