Problems with pdf files.

[Thomas Ward]

That's the problem. They insist pdf documents are accessible because of
Adobe's 5.0 release. However, what they aren't getting is I am trying to
read a document on Linux, and Adobe for Linux doesn't work with speech.
It is a case were I am going to have to call them back, and insist on
talking to some high level official, and tell them the problem.
Perhaps tell them if they don't cooperate with my accessible needs I may
have to get a lawyer, and see if they are violating some accessability laws.
After all they insist it is accessible, but only accessible to those with
new Microsoft based technologies.
