I believe the pdf and word issue dates back to 1999 or so, when you needed to upgrade to the latest and greatest of JAWS at considerable cost to fully access pdfs. Things have changed in 8 years. Now you can access pdfs with almost any screenreader (that is less than 8 years old) and a free version of acrobat. For word documents you also need software to open it and the most common, word costs. > While this is generally true, you need to remember that the creator of a PDF should do a few simple things to make it accessible. Most don't.
