<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Atkinson Hyperlegible"">99% of the time these days we’re making Word documents from PDF files, but if we needed to make accessible PDFs I think it’s possible to do in ABBYY, you just do it differently. If you pull
a PDF into the OCR part of the program you can tag areas as text, image, tables, etc., and you can choose the reading order for all the elements on a page. Those SHOULD save as accessible PDF elements if you then export in the right format. This is not something
I’ve tested, but the company does claim you can make fully compliant PDF-UA documents using their software.
