Re: multiple file formats

One of the Braille readers or users, is they don't like (actually hate)
long links names of any kind and multi pages that required multi clicking to
pages get the link.

One idea is to name the file in heading and list the format option as a list
under the heading.

For example:

<h2>AADB Today - June Edition</h2>
<ul>
<li>Plain Text</li>
<li>MS Word</li>
<li>PDF</li>
</ul>

I usually place plain text first on the list, to slightly lessen the search
for most braille readers favorite format, plain text.
