Hi Chaudry,
the PDF to html conversion tools i know of do not create accessible HTML,
merely flaky html versions of the inaccessible PDF's
your best bet is to mark up the content as HTML in the first place and
offer the PDF as an alternative.
I presume this is not what you wanted to hear...............
with regards

Please respond to

There are a few tools and some suggestions to make PDF documents
accessible but do you think there is one solution/process/tool which can
actually convert a typical PDF file containing
2 column text flow
a few graphs
a couple of tables
and a few images
into a usable (not only accessible) document for the web?
I still have a feeling that you can click on all these links to gather
some information but at the end of the day you still don't have a
solution.
I just feel helpless.

OminPage is an OCR program. Haven't used it yet, but supposed to convert
PDFs to any document type - word, excel, htm, etc, and retain
formatting. pretty cheap too, under 1K
