And if anybody is listening that the latest version of PDF2ID will do some really nice things in that conversion to help you keep those files accessible. So Paul, if you’re listening, again, I just want to give you a real big shout out and a kudos on that. You know what I mean? Because I think most people would just kind of focus on the conversion, getting from point A to point B, but Paul actually said, “You know what, people are needing to make these documents accessible and keep them accessible.” And he did some really great stuff with a PDF2ID plugin that really helps users to maintain that accessibility after the conversion. So basically, if you open a tagged PDF, PDF2ID create styles for all the different text elements in the document and automatically applies the export tagging to the style based on the tag.Īnd I just wanted to give Paul a shout out, because I really want to give him kudos for keeping accessibility in mind, for even making it a component. And what he ended up doing was building accessibility into his product. And he was asking me about the accessibility in InDesign. Paul and I worked together for a little bit.
PDF2ID PLUGIN PDF
And so this product converts the PDF to an InDesign document. So it’s for people who… You know, it’s an older version of a product, and now they’re tasked with updating it, and they don’t want to start from ground zero. And to explain that the product is designed to be able to open a PDF file and convert it to an InDesign document. And he was working on the next rendition of the PDF2IB software.
A good friend of mine, his name is Paul Chadha. And it’s made by a company called Recosoft. Well, I guess the one thing I wanted to mention… You know, again, everybody who is listening here knows that my background, and one of my areas of focus is on Adobe InDesign and how it relates to PDF remediation. Anyway, so in the topic of accessibility, we’ve got some interesting things to talk about today.
It always makes for great sunsets, but you know, it definitely makes sometimes not so great to be outside doing stuff. So you know, we have some smoke coverage. It’s gonna be 103 today here in California. Today is a little bit overcast, but the humidity kind of broke the last couple of days and I’m really enjoying it. You know what, the last couple of days has definitely mellowed out. How’s the weather out there on the East Coast?
