We are drafting a guide for creating accessible PDFs when using In-Design:
[DRAFT] Exporting Accessible PDFs with InDesign
<https://docs.google.com/a/nyu.edu/document/d/1Vp4XVxLudfDpF2NApQQl6Sz7ZQFOb_RQOaHHwYa3F7Y/edit?usp=drive_web>

provided.
There is an accessible PDF
<https://drive.google.com/open?id=1yCo0sqaqsRnBq76_7dujbhnYNHhklU1e> or Word
Doc version
<https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qR_13NEavaXIRyWla1ZxB_w_7ege0NjP>
available if you prefer those formats; however, these will be removed in
time and shouldn't be distributed until we are absolutely certain all the
guidance is correct.

Note this is an early draft and we are not presenting this as a
correct, complete, or definitive. I am certain there are gaps, things we
didn't consider, or even things we misunderstood. We are trying to create a
guide that is straight-forward to most. We hope to eventually post as a web
page for our community and the public to discover. But, not until we know
it is good advice. I do want it to get as close to PDF-UA as possible and
reasonable, but do worry about the sustainability of a workflow that
becomes too complex.

Best Regards,
Marshall
