  • 1.  508 software that works well with equations

    Posted 04-17-2015 07:52

    Besides Acrobat Pro 11,  does anyone know of any software that does a good job reading equations in web documents for 508 compliance? 

    Thanks.

    Hi Bob,

    I admittedly know nothing about 508 compliance. Latext has been around for decades and is free.  Have you checked it out?

    It has to do with accessibility in IT:

    Thanks Mark! Now I vaguely remember that some software I developed for EPA years ago had to be made 508 compliant by the GUI developer.
