My simple test with the Office 365 version on Mac (version 16.30) with
saving a file to PDF (both Excel and PDF attached) and examining in Adobe
Acrobat DC (build: 19.21.20049.354971) doesn't seem to show that the table
was marked up properly. Table rules which failed as indicated from the
Acrobat accessibility checker:
- Rows
- TH and TD
- Headers
- Regularity
- Summary
But of course I could just be doing it wrong. I'm pretty green in the
document accessibility space.
