We were not able to create an accessible PDF using any of the Google products so at the University I am consulting with, we informed everyone in the university system not to use them. I'm sure everyone paid attention.

The only solution we found was to drop the Google document in to MS-Office on PC and add the appropriate tags as needed and then save as PDF.

I guess it just another one of those things the folks in GoogleLand have not got around to fixing and making accessible.
