For the record, I'm using Window Eyes and have a problem opening PDFs from
the web, so I guess this isn'tt really a problem unique to Window Eyes.
When I get the page open, it tells me how many frames it has etc, but I
can't get at the text.  Often, my computer then crashes.  If it doesn't, I
can sometimes save a copy and read it within acrobat.  But the Freedom
Import printer also works well.
