00:00:07.000 --> 00:00:07.733
This video

2
00:00:07.733 --> 00:00:11.666
will show you how to turn on
the accessibility tools in Adobe

3
00:00:11.666 --> 00:00:15.600
Acrobat Pro
and how to perform an accessibility check.

4
00:00:17.266 --> 00:00:20.000
The tools menu is usually down
the right hand side.

5
00:00:20.333 --> 00:00:23.066
You can expand that
by clicking on Find tools.

6
00:00:24.733 --> 00:00:27.866
There's also a tools menu at the top,
so I'm going to click on the tab

7
00:00:27.866 --> 00:00:30.133
that says Tools,

8
00:00:30.400 --> 00:00:34.733
and I'm going to scroll down
to the protect and standardised section

9
00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:36.133
of the page.

10
00:00:36.133 --> 00:00:39.933
And here we have accessibility
and I can click to add.

11
00:00:41.666 --> 00:00:42.933
When I add it,

12
00:00:42.933 --> 00:00:45.800
it appears in my tools list on the right.

13
00:00:45.800 --> 00:00:49.000
So now I'm going to go back to my PDF
and click

14
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.133
Accessibility.
That brings up a menu.

15
00:00:52.466 --> 00:00:55.533
One of the options in
the menu is Accessibility Check.

16
00:00:55.800 --> 00:00:57.000
I'm going to click on that.

17
00:00:58.466 --> 00:01:01.533
That brings up a dialogue box.
By default,

18
00:01:01.533 --> 00:01:04.933
the Create accessibility report
button is usually checked.

19
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:08.733
I have unchecked that
because that creates an HTML file

20
00:01:08.733 --> 00:01:11.333
that sits in my documents
that I don't ever use.

21
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:16.133
I'll leave everything else
checked and click Start checking.

22
00:01:18.266 --> 00:01:20.800
The results appear on the left hand side

23
00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:26.133
in the accessibility checker. Results can
be broken down into two different types.

24
00:01:26.466 --> 00:01:30.600
So in the first section, I have a fail

25
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:33.933
and I have two items that need
manual checking.

26
00:01:34.466 --> 00:01:38.933
Fails must be corrected.
Items that need manual checking

27
00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:42.466
are things that the automatic checker
can't check for itself.

28
00:01:42.600 --> 00:01:46.266
So you need to check those manually,
but both need to be looked at.

29
00:01:46.800 --> 00:01:51.400
In all of these you can click on the arrow
to open up each section.

30
00:01:52.333 --> 00:01:53.133
Thankfully, because

31
00:01:53.133 --> 00:01:57.133
I created my PDF
correctly, it's not identifying

32
00:01:57.133 --> 00:02:00.200
many issues, but that's not to say
there's nothing to check.

33
00:02:00.666 --> 00:02:02.600
We'll look at that in a later video.
