<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I went to Karen from Karlen
Communications preconference on accessible documents at CSUN, as
well as her session on PDF/UA and they were both excellent. The
handouts that she shares on her site are really useful. <br>
<br>
I also attended sessions from staff from Simply Accessible, and
they were also great. In particular, I think Derek Featherstone,
was an engaging and knowledgable presenter.<br>
<br>
I'm not sure if either of these companies charge in US or
Canadian, but the Canadian dollar sucks right now, so you might
get some added value there. <br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
