Dear Colleagues;
I work part time for the North Dakota State University’s 
Information
and Technology Department.  My supervisor is interested in 
recommending
a range of solutions other than Adobes Acrobat reader like 
"common
look" if they actually work for the sight impaired.
The company NetCentric offers the product that it calls 
CommonLook
Section 508.  The promise is that CommonLook can be used to make 
new,
accessible PDF documents as well as to upgrade old PDF documents 
so
that they are accessible.  Here is their web address:
http://www.commonlook.com/pdf

Do any of you know of other such products or have   reviews of 
others
like it? Is any such service being utilized in your University 
Systems
or government agencies to make PDF files accessible?  Please 
respond

Thank you in advance for your feedback.  It is much appreciated.

Michelle Zentz
NDAB President
