Very helpful, thanks!

I was looking to find out how to control dots and found this amazing video. Thank you.

Regarding artifacting leaders in a TOC, you can also go into the link tag and in "Alternate Description for Links," add the chapter title and page number (e.g., Chapter 1, 1).

Thank you for this; I saw this demonstrated in one of Allyant's training webinars, but it was so much information in such a short amount of time, it really didn't stick.

Commented on the Facebook page a couple of minutes ago but commenting here too. Tried the Pdfix on both mac and Windows and it comes up with an error related to VeraPDF and java. Was merely trying the lite version so see what it could do, especially as the mac environment has so few options besides Acrobat Pro. Wrote the company about the error, and heard back a few hours later of the need to install java for the program to work.

Why is accessibility SO unaccessible.

speed test por favor!!!

Another question in reference to this topic. I have noticed that Adobe Acrobat creates a table when clearly there is no table in the document. Any idea why?

This video was excellent, as are all of your accessibility tutorials. I have a question regarding the table tags. Sometimes, text is mistakenly marked as a table but there isn't one in the document. I will try to retag the document, which sometimes resolves the problem. However, I am unsure if it's appropriate to change the <TH>, <TD> and <TR> tags to <P>? That is accepted by the accessibility checker, but I don't know if this is the correct way to remediate the issue.

The PDF part is pretty good. Your captioning and transcripts are only capturing Chax

speed test, speed test, speed test!

Can you do the document race live and give us the document so we can do it live with you? And then go through it at the end so we can all check our own correctness?

Thanks so much for this!!

export all tags OMG thank you

absolutely useless

Great discussion Chad and Dax. I particularly appreciated the UX of ATs and how there are different navigation patterns depending on user’s preference and on vendor shortcuts.

I gained my ADS certification this month! I give you two a lot of credit for helping me prepare, so thanks for all you do!

Great explanation. Thank you.

This platform was really interesting but I was told we needed to purchase 10 seats to get the accessibility features.

Hi Chad and Dax. I’m an accessibility newbie. I’m afraid my brain has become completely scrambled watching this. For us newbies who are still trying to get to grips with the basics, it’s really confusing to be told that there are multiple ways of achieving the same objective. I appreciate that this video is probably intended for people who are already clued up on accessibility and tags and an intellectual debate of one method over another might be appreciated by them. However, I just need to know what the structure needs to be. It would also be really good if you could go slowly and provide explanations when doing the screen shots as I have to keep pausing the video and going back multiple times to watch the really important bit which gets rushed over. I still don’t understand how to properly tag my QR code 😢

The reference tag nested in TOCs is also PDF/UA standard (per page 16 of the PDF associations Tagged PDF Best Practice Guide: Syntax PDF: "Example C: "substructures in a <TOC> & <TOCI> context containing <Reference> & <Link>"). Blargh! I know that when testing I find the double link speak frustrating, so I'm sure that native screen readers do, too (although NVDA uses are accustomed to it). My struggle is that by removing the reference tags, then I feel untruthful marking the PDF as PDF/UA conformant.

Correct

So then, if Word exports the bullet inside the LBody, it's not a requirement to tag the bullet separately as an Lbl?

Very helpful! I've seen some tutorials say that the page number at the end of the leader is also not necessary and should be marked as an artifact. Is that correct? Similarly, a TOC that I'm working with has a number at the beginning of each section of the TOC (i.e. 1. Introduction). Is that something that should be marked as an artifact as well?

How do you delete the structure? I press "Delete" and nothing happens.

Do both of the alt texts (image and link) voice if you have both of them? When I've done this in the past, Adobe gives me an alt text error because it's one object (with another inside) with two alt texts assigned. And then I think only the alt text in the parent tag voices, not both. What is your experience when using a screen reader when you've tagged something like this?

There's also a faster way to find a link and put it where you want it. You select the Link tag where you want it to go, then go up to the tag menu (above the Tag tag) and click Find and use the menu to find your unmarked link. When you locate and then tag the link through the Find dialogue box, the OBJR will be right in that Link tag you originally selected.

To delete a link, you don't even have to go into Edit PDF - you can just right-click it on the page without any tools open and click Delete Link.

FYI: Close captioning dropped at 28:22. Transcript is good.

Congratulations on the new development! And, yes, advanced CommonLook techniques, please.

Congratulations, guys!

Congratulations on your exciting new venture!

could you please share this tool free software

Thank you so much for the "Disable New Acrobat" mention. I couldn't find any reason for the layout switch, so I was happy to go back to a familiar landscape.

Thank you for the information guys.

Helpful information ❤

This video's title doesn't fit the content. The discussion in the video is about "multiple documents", not reflow.

How big is your koi pond gonna be, Dax???😮😮😮

This is v informative. Our team is still trying to mirror reading order with tag order in the PDF.

Thanks for this discussion. For voice memos should it be "one message one idea" and rather send more messages than long messages… of is this also breaking for those that need voice mail as first choice.

8:28 Excellent conversation! Recently when I hired an accessibility specialist at my company, the first thing I looked for was an accessible resume. It blew my mind how few accessible resumes came in!

Thanks guys! Interesting.

Loved this episode! I don't remember seeing that feature about the PDF/UA identifier either. I think it's new. Thanks for sharing! I agree about Funkify. Great tool, especially for demonstrating to others about certain disabilities.

If I select list items in pdf CommonLook is crashing with message "Method not found". Any thoughts?

Outstanding video! I'm getting excited about learning CommonLook!

What’s the seventh question?

Hey Dax and Chad, the end cut off mid-sentence - was that intentional?

I completely agree about the billboards! Also some commercials on TV or KZbin or wherever. If I can't read it in x amount of time, you've failed haha

FYI, with the new update, you can't actually put AltText on a P tag - it only lets you do ActualText.
