A year or so ago, I reviewed many PDF creators with the hope that one or
some, other than Acrobat, could create accessible pdfs. It appeared at the
time that only Acrobat allowed the creation of accessible pdfs although
others did support PDF 1.4 and now PDF 1.5, PDF versions that support
tagging.

I would be interested in hearing about any other product that can create
Accessible PDFs.

Subject: [WebAIM] Any experience of PDF995?



A client wants some advice on whether the PDF documents produced by a
product called PDF995 (see http://www.pdf995.com/ for info) could
present accessibility problems.

I've had a quick look at the site and cannot see any mention of the
product using MSAA technology in the way Acrobat does to produce
&quot;accessible&quot; PDF documents.

Does anyone have any experience with this product?

Cheers,
Dey
