Hi Rabab,

why can't you put some instruction with a link on it on the first page of the PDF documents?

As an aside (and just guessing here): if you have accessible HTML versions of the content - shouldn't it be relatively straightforward to generate accessible PDFs from them? With PDFs it's so much easier to download and keep them, and read them even when offline.
