Hi Chris,
How can you be totally blind, but with light perception? <Smile>. I just
found that amusing. I am totally blind, period. I see nothing. That is
the only way you can be totally blind.
All the best
Steve

Yeah, I have a chip and pin card myself, and it's brilliant! I'm able to
type in the pin no problems, yet I'm totally blind with some light
perception.

Hi Steve
You ask
"Why is PDF not accessible? Or should I say in what way?"
If someone is not aware how to access a file, (or for that matter
even a website) then as far as the person is concerned he/she is
having an *access* problem!
You may well argue that not having the knowledge, doesn't mean there
is an access problem. True, but one needs to consider access from
the individual's point of view.
Just consider chip and PIN as a good example.
There are people that will say they are not able to use chip and PIN
on the grounds not able to see the keys.
But there are also many totally blind that will say they care able
to use the key pads without sight.
So what does this show us?
Why is access different for different people?
Regards, Derek
