hi.
one of the things that apple should improvise in voice over, was to
give a much more professional support in reading pdf.
support to PDF in voice over, is very basic, a shame.
now any other screen reader whether commercial or not, supports reading
pdf with enough professionalism, and as always the voice over continues
to lag behind.
these are things I can not understand why apple still does not update
the voice over in this type of tasks.
cheers.

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 <http://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.

Gigi

Hi Eugenia,
This is great news. Do you know in what version of PDFPen these
improvements have been added? Have you tried it out yourself yet? And
do they offer a trial version do you know?
Cheers,
Nic

Hi guys
Below is information I received from the developers of PDF Pen. It's
very good. We can't use the program for everything that it will do,
but it's a definite improvement from before.

Hi Eugenia,
We did do past work to make fields accessible. I'm sure that works
better with forms designed for accessibility in the sense that such
forms have sensible field names rather than "field_00835" or
something helpful like that. I do not know if the work we did will
be sufficient to meet all of your needs, and we do welcome any
feedback on that.
Regards,
Greg
