<p class="MsoNormal">That isn’t always the case, in my experience. I believe there are settings you can choose from that change whether the PDF you get from printing or saving to a PDF is text or an image. That said, the PDF will probably still require remediation
to be actually ACCESSIBLE, but you should be able to at least get a text-based PDF from most web browsers, in my experience.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I just tried it in Google Chrome, and when I selected “Save to PDF” as my printer I got a text-based PDF. So it’s definitely possible.<o:p></o:p></p>
