Libraries, universities and government departments are among organizations
that make extensive use of

PDF documents on their Web pages.  The link below will take you to a
60-minute recording of a recent

Web conference on creating more accessible and usable PDF documents using
Adobe Acrobat:

Web Conference Title:
Accessible and Useable PDF Documents : Techniques for Document Authors
Presenter: Karen McCall, M.Ed.

Karen has published a book with the same title, and she gives workshops
across Canada, the United

States and elsewhere on designing PDF documents for maximum accessibility
and usability.

Learn how to create more usable links in PDF documents, how to provide Alt
Text for links and images,

and how to create more accessible forms. See first hand what happens when a
document is scanned and

made accessible using Adobe Acrobat Professional 7. Tips and techniques you
work through will also

help in making legacy PDF documents more accessible and usable.

When you click on the link below, the link at the top of that page will be
the free 60-minute Web

conference recording.  The rest of the page describes a 4-part follow-up
series:
