Re: Accessible "save as PDF" plug ins for Word on OSX

If you are interested in a "Save as Accessible PDF" solution for MS Word on
Windows you may want to take a look at PAW (PDF accessibility Wizard) from
NetCentric (www.net-centric.com/paw/).

PAW takes you through the Word document and addresses any accessibility
issues (with the goal of producing a Section 508 compliant document),
including alt text, tables, lists etc. This will typically require user
input (for example to verify/provide the textual description of an image or
confirm the table headers).
