Hello All;
I have a document in Word that I need to make 508 accessable because I work
for a fedeeral agency. I am ultimately going to convert it to acrobat format
but I hear it is much better to make the doc ument accessable in Word rather
than waitng until it is in Acrobat. I also found this to be true because
converting tables in acrobat format is a complicated task that I have still
not ben able to figure out.

So ... can anyone lead me to some good tutorials/resources on how to make a
Word Document accessable so when I convert it to Acrobat, the Acrobat file
can be read by page readers.

Thanks much.

Tim

never had to do this, but one of the first hits my preferred search
engine came up with was:
