Accessibility Tools for Adobe Acrobat Documents
Adobe Systems Incorporated currently provides two solutions that help
make information in Adobe PDF files accessible to the visually disabled.
These solutions convert Adobe PDF files into a format that can be read
by screen readers. Screen reader programs allow the visually disabled
to interact with their computer by interpreting what is happening on the
display and outputting that information to speech synthesis or refreshable
Braille output devices.
