Making offline Magazines accessible?

Hi,

I've just been asked if I would speak to a publisher about making their offline magazines accessible. I know about document accessibility - but the word ‘magazine' makes me think they will have a level of graphical layout and visual branding that would make them gag if gave them basic document accessibility advice.

Does anyone have experience in this area they can pass on to me? Or can you point me to resources that I can use to read up on it? It would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Jim
