Geoff, there isn't a list in this PDF, but there are words scattered on the
page in a decorative pattern that could be a list if the designer had
created them that way (Engineering, sociology, etc.). This text is all live,
however, rather than graphical.
RE: repeatedly hearing "graphic," I think that might be the Toronto Rehab
logo. I downloaded the PDF, opened it in Acrobat Pro, and took it apart. It
appears that each letter and piece of their logo is a graphic rather than
live text. Counting the letters and pieces, that would make it around 40
so-called graphics.
And of course, there isn't Alt-text on that logo graphic.
Other than the blue-brick background graphic and the logo, everything else
in this PDF is live text.
