Hi Loretta and all: I have a slightly off topic (specific topic of alt text/forms in PDF) but it may be related. I was interested lately in reading PDF's that contain equations. One example is Richard Feynman's nobel lecture http://www.nobel.se/physics/laureates/1965/feynman-lecture.pdf The Adobe translation tools and accessibility plugin work well on the text portion, but the equations, as one might guess, get a bit garbled. I was wondering if there might be a PDF to latex converter perhaps? Might there be other suggestions? Thanks, Steve Steve McCaffrey Senior Programmer/Analyst ITS NYSED >>> Loretta Guarino Reid <lguarino@adobe.com> 04/02/02 12:23PM >>> Have you looked at the document at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/pdfs/CreateAccessibleAdvanced.pdf It describes a number of techniques for repairing accessibility problems in PDF files.
