We got the note below from our college president today. What does anyone know about making context and pdf accessible to student with vision problems?
I don't know that much offhand. However, with web pages, one of the simpler ways of testing compatibility with screen-readers is using lynx to view the file; I'd think that using one of the pdf-to-text converters on the pdf file would do about the same for .pdf files. It's not a perfect test by any means, but it's a good first start. Given that the TeX->PDF->text pathway is often recommended for getting text out of TeX documents, I suspect it's likely to be reasonably ok. - Brooks
