Accessibility means making sure your content is available to as many people as possible. When you make your PDFs accessible, it means adding tags, bookmarks, alt text, and other information that makes the files readable to users who are visually or mobility impaired. Using Acrobat DC, and other tools such as Microsoft Word and Adobe InDesign, it's now much easier and faster to create valid, accessible PDF files. In this course, Chad Chelius explains why accessibility is important and what features an accessible PDF should include, and shows how to streamline the process of creating accessible PDFs using Word, Excel, PowerPoint, InDesign, and Acrobat DC.

Topics include:

* Understanding the experience of users with visual impairments

* How to know if a PDF is accessible

* Setting up Acrobat DC

* Tagging content, including lists and tables

* Adding metadata, bookmarks, and alt text

* Generating a PDF with Microsoft Word

* Creating accessible PDFs from PowerPoint, Excel, and InDesign
