Course Aim:
Workplaces today need to be compliant with a range of accessibility
requirements. This course will help you achieve this.
Creating accessible PDF files allows viewers with disabilities to read
PDF documents and ensures compliance with various legal and other
requirements. Just as importantly, creating accessible PDFs benefits
all users by making document more easily searchable and usable.
This course takes participants through the process of creating
accessible PDF files using Microsoft Word, Adobe InDesign and Adobe
Acrobat Professional. Documents are prepared for accessibility in Word
and InDesign then checked and edited using Acrobat. The course also
covers creating accessible PDFs from any software using Acrobat.
Multiple document types including graphics, tables, text-based
documents and forms are used as examples. Guidelines, standards, real-
life examples and assistive technologies are also discussed.
This course is highly recommended for all creators of PDF files. It is
often a relatively simple process to make PDFs accessible and is of
great benefit to both individuals and corporations.
