Thank you for your response! I tried DC first and found that it was good enough for me so I didn't try 11.

I like DC better than 11, as it doesn't return as many "false positives" with the accessibility checker. I've already forgotten what the errors were that we had last year, but it was a case of Acrobat 11 finding errors that weren't there.

Subject: [WebAIM] Tagging PDFs with Acrobat

Hi-

A month or two ago, I tagged a number of pdfs from within Acrobat X and it was a painful process with many errors that I couldn't resolve. More recently, I downloaded a trial version of Acrobat DC and was able to tag pdfs with no errors.

I am ready to purchase Acrobat DC but want some feedback from this group as to why I should or should not buy it.

Thank you,
