Create an accessible PDF file

Accessibility extends the availability of your documents to the broadest possible audience. You can build in accessibility so that users who rely on screen readers, keyboard controls instead of mouse actions, and handheld devices can more easily read and navigate your Adobe PDF documents.

Your best bet for all accessibility issues is to start with a tagged source file or to add tags to your Adobe PDF file. This creates the most reliable access for screen readers, and is essential for reflowing files for handheld devices.
