Adobe
Acrobat
HTML, the code used to create Web pages, cannot maintain all of the
original formatting and presentation of many documents. In such cases, MMS
uses a different format called Portable Document Format (PDF).
PDF
documents maintain the look of the original document, and they can be
viewed on any Macintosh, PC, or Unix computer. However, you must download
and install the free Acrobat* Reader* program. Please be sure to use the
most current reader from Adobe to ensure compatibility for all PDF files
on MMS's site.
Adobe provides online conversion tools for Adobe PDF documents that
help visually disabled users whose screen reader software is not
compatible with the current Adobe Acrobat Reader. These online tools convert
PDF documents into either HTML or ASCII text, which can then be read by a
number of common screen reader programs

Access Adobe.Com contains information on
accessibility of Adobe products. Adobe has a free tool that allows blind and
visually impaired users to read any document in Adobe PDF format. The tool converts PDF
documents into simple HTML or ASCII text which can then be read by a number of common
screen reading programs that synthesize the HTML as audible speech.
