Re: Adobe Acrobat accessibility problem with PDF on reflow

Yes, the native application is Word and the document is created using
styles. Why I'm making a PDF? Well it's a 10,000 word paper and people will
want to save a PDF of the whole thing on their drive to print later.


There is also a HTML version but that's broken in quite a few pages. Plus
PDF allows me to preserve the feel of the document as it was intended from
the beginning.


Thanks,
Carmen

Hello Carmen,
Aren't PDF's fun? You know people will ask why you're making a PDF?


What is its native application, Word?
If so, was the document created using styles?
