Insure PDF accessibility #68

Closed eldobbins closed 1 day ago

eldobbins commented 1 month ago

Yuri says the PDF cannot be posted on the website if it isn't accessible. This is likely a UAF requirement.

This tool will check it: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/using/create-verify-pdf-accessibility.html. Oh it isn't a web-based tool. It is the instructions for how to use Adobe Pro to do it.

UA no longer seems to offer Adobe Pro. We have FoxIt instead, which can also check accessibility. https://www.uada.edu/employees/division-accessibility/table-chart-accessibility/foxit-table.aspx ...

Summary

The checker found problems which may prevent the document from being fully accessible.

But I don't even understand what they are talking about in the "failed" messages. And Quarto documentation's only reference to accessibility is fig-alt, so maybe it isn't a priority for them? I think this is going to be a heavy lift.

Need clarification from Yuri.

I feel like this is something that Pandoc has struggled with ... I'm crossing my fingers that the Typyt Team will get there soon (https://github.com/typst/typst issues 133), though!

Sent email to Yuri to ask about this.

Response from Yuri was to provide her with a copy in Word and she would do the work to insure accessibility. But all the issues documented in #108 apply, so at this time, I am giving up on releasing this report as an official ACEP report.
