Adobe Acrobat 5.0

We are trying to make sure that going forward, any PDFs that we include in
our apps are as accessible as humanly (and economically) possible. I know
that Acrobat 5.0 is supposed to be a huge improvement over earlier versions
in terms of accessibility, but when we are spec'ing out a work order for our
vendors, are there any specifics of 5.0 that we should be highlighting?
Should we just recommend using the "accessibility palette" in 5.0, including
the "accessibility checker"? I know that you can double-check for alt tags
and sizing of individual elements of a PDF, but what else?

Many thanks for your time.
