<p class="MsoNormal">Hi!<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">If the form stays in Excel, in order to make the form accessible, you’re going to have to protect all of the text and force the screen readers to only access either the active X, legacy form controls, or content controls.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">This means someone using a screen reader will not have access to any of the text in the form, including instructional text.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Additionally, within the past five or six years, screen readers, such as JAWS or NVDA, are not reading the tool tips for active X form controls or legacy form controls accurately.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am a word MVP and these types of forms often crash word, and or the adaptive technology.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Content controls, if they are available in Excel, are also not accessible. They were never designed to be accessible. They are keyboard traps, and none of the tool tips or instructions that would be in a content control are accessible
to the screen readers or text to speech tools.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I did take a look at the form and you have designed it. Well, using topic changes/headings and keeping the tables small.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">For this form, the most accessible route is going to be either PDF or HTML.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The advantage of tagged accessible PDF is that the end user will be able to read the instruction text and the tool tips for the form controls. They will also be able to archive a copy of the form on their computer and fill it out at their
leisure, as well as maintaining an archive copy.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"> As a way of introducing myself to this list, I am on the ISO committee for establishing the PDF standards and the PDF accessibility standards and have over 25 years experience in PDF, PDF forms, and accessible Microsoft Office content.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
