Folks,
It is deeply regretted that on the one hand the copyright bills has
given us an opportunity to access an abundance of print material
which hither to cannot be accessed by the print disabled people,
while on the other hand we're unable to access our own personal
documents, be they the medical reports, bank statements or any
official bills because most of the corporate sectors these days are
producing the PDF documents in such a way which cannot be read out
by any screen reader. For quite some time, the Lal Pathology
Laboratory, which is supposed to be the best accredited lab all over
India has been producing the personal medical reports which are not
accessible through any screen reader. As soon as you open them, you
screen reader will give you a message "the Author set this documents
in a way which prevents access," and the JAWS will say protection
failure., needless to mention that the contents are very much
visible on the screen for a sighted people and not accessible by the
screen readers. If anybody has any solution to this, can share,
except indeed suggesting to convert the same with the help of any
OCR programme, which is of course is the last option. I think we, as
an organization, or any registered organisation can approach to them
and launch the protest on behalf of the entire VI community because
this is also a violation to our right to print accessibility.
