About the Microsoft testing groups:
Will either of them or maybe another group be testing the features within MS Office products that allow content creators to make accessible Word and PDFs?
Many bugs or "deficiencies" are in MS Word that need to be identified, submitted to Microsoft, and corrected by their engineers.
New tools within the office suite are needed to create better, more accessible documents by content creators.
Will either of these 2 groups address accessibility from that angle? Or should a third group be organized?
