Hello there, 

I am a Comp Sci student (St Andrews, UK) helping out in a project (at DTU, 
Denmark), that aims at making computers more accessible to blind people. 

They are particularly interested in making PDF documents more accessible to 
blind people, so I have been asked to focus on this.

Hi Max,
There is some work on the way sponsorised by the Regional Government of 
Andalusia (Spain). See bugs
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309015
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28276A video 
here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCsB1oI4Dlk

DTU is interested in getting this functionality working for any PDF reader and 
in the shortest amount of time, so I have also contacted Okular's development 
team.
I haven't looked at either implementation yet, but as there are some time 
constraints I will most likely contribute to whichever would take less time. 


Could anyone please give me some feedback so I can move onto the next stage?

I guess you can use poppler changes for making okular accesible too.

Cheers,
