Introduction

As the world changed and technology became a bigger part of everyone's lives, PDF has become an even more popular format for sharing files. However, as awareness of web accessibility continues to expand, faculty have had to learn how to create accessible documents using other platforms (such as Microsoft Office products), but how to make those old PDFs accessible has remained a bit of a mystery.
While the Digital Learning Innovations office recommends using other types of documents (Word, PowerPoint, etc.) before PDF when possible, we recognize that sometimes using PDFs is necessary. For this reason, we've put together the following resources to help you make your PDFs as accessible as you can.
