<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">Hi Everyone!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">I am pleased and excited to announce that I’ve joined Accessibil-IT of Oakville/Toronto as Head of Quality Assurance and Training. Accessibil-IT is a company that specializes in accessible PDF
documents. This means Karlen Communications will no longer do any work around PDF document accessibility. All PDF work will be done through Accessibil-IT.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">Please contact Accessibil-IT for your PDF needs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">All of the information you need to get in touch with Accessibil-IT Inc. can be found on this page.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">One of the most compelling reasons for making this move is that Accessibil-IT creates PDF documents that are equal in accessibility to what I produce or, in some instances, better.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">Karen McCall and Karlen Communications will still be doing work around accessible Microsoft Office document design, it is the PDF work that is now being done through Accessibil-IT.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">In a further career move, Karen is involved in disability rights advocacy. (See the page on the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">Of course, I’ll still answer e-mail questions about your documents.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F4E79">Cheers, Karen<o:p></o:p></span></p>
