Accessibility issues in dynamic PDF

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

When a PDF is rendered as a dynamic form, we are having issues such as tables not being read by JAWS on screen reader.

Similarly check box values updated using javascript are not being recognized by the screen reader. Even though the value is updated by the script as 'checked', JAWS still reads it as 'unchecked'.

Note: Accessibility issues such as these seem to go away when the form is static. But we require the form to be dynamic.

We are using JAWS version 10.0 and Reader 9.0

Any help on this would be appreciated. Thanks.

Regards,

I'd be interested to see how this gets resolved.  I was fooling around with JAWS a little bit back and found that JAWS has trouble with multiple subforms (i.e. complex tables and subforms within subforms with tables, etc.)
