The ultimate guide to accessible PDFs
- Some people think that document accessibility is hard, but really it's not. Now in this course, I take you down several different paths depending on your situation and show you how to make an existing PDF file accessible, how to make Office applications accessible, and my personal favorite, how to make accessible PDFs from Adobe InDesign. Hi there, my name is Chad Chelius, and for the last 15 years, I've been working in the field of document accessibility. Making documents accessible is something that I'm incredibly passionate about. That's why I created my company, Chax Training and Consulting, to help users to create accessible PDF files and supporting them throughout that process. Without further ado, let's get started.
