Create accessible PDFs with Microsoft 365 apps

Hi Microsoft 365 Insiders!

 

In the spirit of Global Accessibility Awareness Day, let’s highlight the importance of creating PDFs that everyone can access and enjoy. Our latest blog post by Peter Wu provides a comprehensive guide on how to create accessible PDFs using Microsoft 365 apps.

 

Blog link: Create accessible PDFs with Microsoft 365

 

Here’s why this matters:
• Over 1 billion people worldwide live with disabilities. Making your content accessible empowers them to fully participate in the digital world.
• Microsoft 365 apps have built-in tools that help you make content accessible as you go, including the Accessibility Checker that runs while you work.
• When saving or exporting your document as a PDF, use the ‘Save or Export as PDF’ command to preserve accessibility features. Remember, ‘Print as PDF’ won’t keep your PDFs accessible.

 

Let’s embrace these practices and ensure that our digital content is inclusive for all. Check out the blog to learn more about creating accessible PDFs and join us in making a difference!

 

Thanks,
