[Athen] Perusall

[Debbie Krahmer]

Hi Ione,

I had to remediate a chapter from a graphic novel to upload into Perusall
back in January of this year. When I tried to test the PDF in the Perusall
interface, I just could not get it to work with my screen reader, NVDA, to
put in any annotations or navigate or access the text within the PDF. I
also tried Hyposthes.is, and I can get SOME access to the annotations, but
I got too frustrated trying to put in an annotation or be able to navigate
between the PDF text and the annotations. It was the first time for me to
use either interface, though, and I had no extra instruction with it.

Thanks,
D.
