[Athen] Question regarding image editing programs

[Joyce Carroll]

Does anyone have experience with, and feedback on any accessibility issues related to, these two imaging editors that we’re considering using on our campus?

Many thanks in advance for any information you can provide.

InDesign is a very poor tool for this. The Adobe tool that has been shown to be pretty effective is LiveCycle Designer.

A constituent on campus wonders about resources for using Adobe InDesign to create source files that can be exported to accessible PDF.  She has done some self-study at tv.adobe.com<http://tv.adobe.com>, but feels that the process described there is too cumbersome and time-consuming.



Has anyone encountered any InDesign resources that can help the casual document designer better understand and implement accessibility?

Best,
