I’ve never heard of that. Is it a screen reader?

No. I am writing custom code in ranorex to read pdf values. Since this option is disable, I am not able to proceed on this. if there are any way to make this enable. let me know.

By the way Adobe go to some trouble to make sure their API is in Acrobat and not Reader. Trying to use accessibility as a back door to avoid buying software is likely to be awkward.

But do you have an actual active screen reader? It’s a specific Microsoft technology.
