in my case the publisher that needs this feature right now is Heidelberg University Publishing: https://heiup.uni-heidelberg.de/
Definitely no turnaround over 7 digits. A small but committed publisher, that is engaged in making PDF documents also accessible for blind people.
- adding some Alt whatever to a pdf has been possible for ages but only when it's required by law they do it - adding some simple label is not helping the blind, while making a dedicated document (or providing the sources) with more extensive description of what this image is showing makes more sense - add audio resources to documents clearly explaining matters that require something that a blind person needs seems better to me (also something that can be done for ages) so ... if publishers really cared about that they'd embraced tex as tool for *multiple* output (not only blind, maybe also huge fonts etc for bad eyesight or alternative coloring for color blind or ...) not even now, with accessibility on the agenda, those demands show up ... so forgive if i don't take publishers demands too serious on this anyway, we'll see what direction pablos tests show us, and i'll adapt to that Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
