Accessibility, tags, and reflow

Last updated 1/14/2015

In addition to Full Check, Acrobat provides other methods to check PDF accessibility:

•Use

Reflow view

to quickly check the reading order.

• Use

Read Out Loud

to experience the document as readers who use the text-to-speech conversion tool experience it.

• Save the document as accessible text and then read the saved text file in a word-processing application. This exercise

enables you to emulate the end-user experience of readers who use a braille printer to read the document.

• Use the

Touch Up Reading Order tool

, Order, Tags, and Content panels to examine the structure, reading order,

and contents of a PDF.
