The ABCs of PDFs, Part 3: Creating Accessible PDF Documents

with Sean Keegan

All it takes is a few simple steps—and you’ve got an accessible PDF document! Adobe Acrobat is a widely used tool for creating and revising PDF documents. A PDF file provides a secure, digital format that preserves the formatting of the original document, and allows sharing between different computers and operating systems. Creating PDF documents that can be processed by screen readers, and other assistive technologies require that document authors follow a few simple steps to ensure access to the PDF content. In this one-hour session, you’ll learn:

  • How to create PDF documents from Microsoft Office documents (e.g., Word, PowerPoint)
  • Simple methods of identifying PDF document accessibility
  • How to retrofit inaccessible PDFs
  • Methods of securing PDF documents, while maintaining accessibility
