Ray, The problem you describe sounds as though the source order of the content hasn't been tagged properly. If changing the reading order doesn't help, the chances are that some fairly extensive work would need to be done to the PDF to make it accessible. PDF accessibility stems almost entirely from two things. The accessibility of the source document and the tool used to convert it into PDF format. The best source document is a well structured Word document. By structured, I mean using Word styles to apply headings, lists and so forth. Unfortunately by the right tools, I do mean Adobe Acrobat Pro. The only potential contender is Office 2007. The following blog post takes a comparative look at the two conversion tools: http://alastairc.ac/2007/08/comparing-tagged-pdfs-from-office-and-acrobat/ Regards, Léonie. > _____________________________________________ > From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On > Behalf Of Ray's Home > Sent: 15 April 2008 22:31 > To: Access-Uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [access-uk] Anyone been involved in PDF creation? > > Maybe this is a long shot, but wondered if anyone's had experience of > reading local newsletters produced in PDF format? > > I'm involved with a local organisation which produces its normal print > size news letter in Publisher, but publishes it to the web in PDF form. > At present the page elements don't read in the proper sequence.
