[gui-talk] Need help moving through an Adobe .pdf doc

Usually when I open a .pdf document with Adobe Reader 7 (I've tried 
downloading and installing Version 8 but it's some new, confusing procedure 
that even a sighted friend who's an I T professional can't figure out how to 
manage).

Anyway, someone sent me a .pdf document I'd like to read all of, but I'm 
being stopped at the bottom of what I presume is just the first page of 
many. As I was going to say first off, though I'm not a big .pdf kind of 
guy, when I do open one now and then, I never have this trouble. I can 
always read the entire thing, whether I do it with down arrowing, or a Jaws 
Say All, or using the page down command or whatever it is (I forget again) 
you're supposed to use in an Adobe document. But this one won't let me go 
farther then the bottom of one page. Or maybe it's just one screen, even.

I went into the View menu, but I didn't understand the menu items and 
submenus. Can anyone with more expertise straighten me out? Thanks a lot.
