Re: for the third time, filling out a PDF

Bhavya shah #95582 Dear all, A quick, insubstantial, tangential comment: I am glad to learn that PDF forms, even those whose form controls are reported by NVDA, are inaccessible even for others. Short of fully relying on sighted assistance, my only current work-around is to edit PDFs using Word and hope (ensure?) that the formatting and structure isn''t inadvertently affected. I will continue following this thread to see if the Adobe Accessibility Wizard trick or another approach helps. Thanks. toggle quoted message Show quoted text On 5/18/22, Brian Vogel <britechguy@...> wrote: Joseph, What you've stated is what I presumed just based upon the sequence of events during my experimentation. This makes me wonder whether Mr. Cavanaugh has ever run the Adobe Accessibility Wizard in Reader DC (or even in Acrobat) or may need to do so again if something has gone awry. If the answer is that the Accessibility Wizard has been run, then I'd try restarting NVDA with add-ons disabled to see if an add-on may be the root of the "not behaving like a web form" behavior for a PDF fillable form. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 You can't crush ideas by suppressing them.
