Hi all,

Is there any way to convert QuarkXPress and PageMaker documents into
accessible PDF file? I just gotten a rude waken the other day that the PDF
documents created by QuarkXPress were not accessible for the screen readers.


If these programs cannot do the conversion, can anyone recommend a
publishing software that will convert the document into accessible PDF?

Thank for your help.
