Reply To: Tables (for accessible pdf documents)

If I covert a row into a header row it is adds a header across all pages that the table appears. Often this is what one is after, but recently I’ve come across an instance where the table needs so continue without having the header repeating on the next page. In which case I’d tend to covert the header row into a ‘normal’ row, however, in terms of accessibility, as far as I understand tables should have header rows. Currently my hack is to overlay a white rectangle over it so it isn’t ‘seen’ by the visual audience, but still is readable by a screen reader…

As far as I know there hasn’t been an assessable PDF event in NZ… here’s to dreaming.
