RE: pdf forms for print or html forms for web use?

Hello,


I am in the process of setting up directions for our group to make our PDFs
accessible. I'm starting off with:

*PDFs developed in MS Office 97 and
*Pre-Existing PDFs



I have seen your document:
http://www.webaim.org/howto/acrobat
This is such a great resource, and I've also found the forum to be very,
very helpful.



Here's my question:

Does the "Make Accessible Plug-in" work? It didn't seem to do much for me.

It seemed that tagging the document piece by piece was the only thing that
worked.

Have you found this to be true?




Thank you so much, it's been difficult to find concrete, definitive answers
for this stuff because like you had mentioned this can be very, very time
consuming (currently).



Thank you!
Melanie Zwack
