Hello,
I'm a Java developer that primarily uses iText with
JasperReports. We've chosen this route and it's worked well for us,
however as you may or may not know, section 508 (which dictates
accessibility standards in the United States) will soon be bolstered to
implement specific requirements, and most seem to believe the
equivalence of an <alt> tag will be required in all reports - currently
supported in PDF spec 1.6. Is there any plan to upgrade iText to adhere
to this standard? If so, do you have any anticipated time frame? I'm
familiar with the iText and JapserReports api, and have written a
project that wraps the two into a reporting system - however I'll need
to rethink an approach if I cannot generate more accessible PDF
documents in the future.
Thank you very much for your time and interest,
Adam Schaible
