Native output with indesign will cause a non valid file.

Output with the accessibility plugin axaio MadeToTag will result in a valid PDF/UA-file, but not the PDF example.

PDF is hand edited with Acrobat.

Evaluation with Acrobat and JAWS

Adobe Acrobat DC (19.010.10059)

JAWS Version 2018.1811.2 ILM

Windows 10

When needed to exemplify what JAWS is speaking, I’m using the same notation used in our guides for tagged psudo code. For instance, <H1> {foobar} means that the text "foobar" is a heading level 1.

Below is JAWS reading:

<H1> {Table of contents} list of 3 items <Link> {1.} Heading first chapter <Link> {��} <Link> {page 2} <Link> {Another heading} <Link> {��} <Link> {page 3} <Link> {Last heading } <Link> {��} <Link> {page 4} list end <H1> {1. Heading first chapter} Some portion of text. <H1> {Another heading} Some portion of text. <H1> {Last heading} Some portion of text.

There are several usability problems with this:

for each entry in the TOC, there are 4 separate links. It should be only 1 link per entry in the TOC.
the chars used to separate the item text from the page # (dots?) is silent, so the user only hears "link".
JAWS virtual cursor navigation is erratic, getting stuck in some fragment of the doc. this is most likely a JAWS/Acrobat bug related to page transition. More investigation required.

In m setup (using JAWS2019), the TOC items are read twice. This is not just with this example. It is an issue I started to notice since a few months. So it must have been in JAWS2018 already
