Hi Larry


My screen reader finds this document very inaccessible.

When I first get to the page I get:

SSA_Guide_to_Accessible_PDF_Documents_and_Forms.pdf#4
Open parent document
Front cover of SSA Guide to Accessible PDF Documents and Forms
Open parent document

When I clikc the open parent button I get the number 1 and cant get
anywhere else, unless I start hitting tab, I then get some text and
another open parent document and it just goes on from there, what a
mess, very confusing.

I should note until this morning when I updated Adobe Reader all I
got was an empty document warning. This just keeps getting more
confusing the more progress is made.

cheers

Geof
