Dear all,

Rule 15 of the RPWD Rules provides among various other things that the 
documents should be either EPub or OCR based PDFs.

The purpose of having OCR based PDFs itself defeats the purpose of 
accessibility. Even if auditors were to provide financial statements in PDF 
which is capable of being extracted through OCR, but the output derived out of 
it is hard to make sense from.

Apart from fighting on legal principals, what else can strengthen the point on 
ensuring accessibility? How do we go and say that merely providing a PDF 
capable of being OCR does not solve the problem?

Any inputs will be appreciated.

Regards,
Amar Jain
