This is not much, but I do know the Easi people speak highly of this
product (http://easi.cc .. electronic access to software and
information), they tach courses on accessibility and repurposing
documents for accessibility. There is also a free trial version. As it
happened, I just applied for a trial download today since I am
evaluating their "PAW" plug in for word for our organization.
I will post back with impressions and experiences in a couple of days
(or more, depending when they email me the license code and download
instructions, it is not automated).
Thanks
