What level was this going at? This would look to outlaw any use of PDF even though we have PDF techniques — since PDF doesn’t allow these things. Also any other technology that does not have a CSS like markup. - is 2.1 moving to an HTML only web page approach? - or does "for the full range of values allowed by the user agent.” mean that if the user agent can’t make these changes (e.g. for PDF) then the content passes without doing any of these things? - I see no problem with something like this at AAA but wouldn’t putting it at A or AA limit the application of 2.1 to HTML or markup languages. I might be wrong here - so this is a question rather than an assertion. - As before — Do you have sufficient techniques for meeting this SC with different technologies? That was one of the key tests we always used when creating a new SC in 2.0. That would clarify what this means and what is possible and which technologies can be used. Would there be a sufficient technique for this SC for PDF? Gregg Gregg C Vanderheiden greggvan@umd.edu
