Hi there. I don't know about the version. I have the latest one, and I have it out on forms like the IRS form 1040 that has been altered to work with screen readers. It worked great when I did it. It does not work on forms that have not been altered to work with screen readers. I have not checked this out, but I wonder if a sighted person could use PDF Pen to alter a pdf form to be accessible. I'd love to test that theory out, but I'll a tester first.
Yes, you can get a trial version if you go to the web site. The address is smilesoftware.com. I think there are a lot of things on there we can't do, but it's a definite improvement over what we have had before with pdf files.
