I'm looking forward to the listed improvements that I've read both on the
Webaim site and Adobe's accessibility site. However, I didn't see much
documentation for the OS X version. We have a sizable OS X population within
our College of Liberal Arts, so I'm investigating if the shortcomings that
have afflicted PDF's and Acrobat Pro 8 still exists in Pro X. The biggest
issues at the time was with PDFMaker converting Word and Excel files with
accessibility tags. All PDF's had to either be created from scratch or could
be tagged, but tags in Office documents prior to using Acrobat would be
stripped.

Also, any other issues regarding creating, saving, tagging, and file
conversion on the Mac OS X side via Acrobat Pro X to note would be welcome.
