SUMMARY:PDF Accessibility Basics: How to Test for Accessibility with JAWS (Part 2)
DESCRIPTION:In the second part of this three-part series\, Rachel will walk through how to use JAWS to test a PDF for accessibility\, covering the key commands and techniques needed to evaluate reading order\, tag structure\, and navigability from a screen reader perspective. Attendees will learn how to move through a document using JAWS\, identify where the reading experience breaks down\, and connect those issues back to specific tag problems in Adobe Acrobat. The session will also cover how to document findings and prioritize fixes based on what JAWS reveals during testing. Building on the tags tree foundation covered in Part 1\, this session bridges the gap between structure and real-world screen reader performance. Join Rachel Reeves from Access Ingenuity to learn how to use JAWS as a practical and reliable PDF accessibility testing tool. \nEvent information and registration
