Hi Dorene, and all,

Asking for another format has worked for me in the 
past as well, yes.

I've done this (years ago now) with Peter Bowerman 
and Dan Poynter. as well as Skip McGrath for his 
offerings and also Hope Clark, among others. 
Haven't really had to with any purchases lately.

For the last few years at least, the PDFs from 
Poynter, McGrath, and Clark, whom all put out 
multiple eBooks, have been accessible. I believe 
this is due mainly to the blind people that have 
shown interest and asked for accessible versions 
over the years. I remember FundsForWriters (Hope 
Clark) at one point at least, offered both MS Word 
and PDF versions, to help her readers with 
accessibility. But since then PDFs have come a 
long way and are more accessible...  usually. ;-)


Blessings to Your Efforts!
Everett

Hi Ana, Everett
I did not look at all the links Everett sent. I 
might start with the Adobe page?but what happens 
for me is that sometimes whatever editting or 
wordprocessing tool is used to generate the 
document does an inadequate translation to PDF.
If the magazine you are working with can tell you 
what software they used to create the PDF, maybe 
we would be able to point them in a good direction 
faster.
I just got something the other day that started 
out life as a docx Word doc because I got an 
earlier version before it was converted to PDF. 
I?may ask the authors whether it was done?on a Mac 
because I know?one of the authors is a Mac user.?
