      Hello. I’m struggling mightily to make an interactive PDF with buttons accessible. I have added alt text to my button in both the object export area and the button area for PDF options. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong but when I go to the tags in the PDF there is no alt text. I know I can add in Acrobat but that’s a massive pain given the number of buttons and the review process where I work.

      Also, I’d love to search these forums but the capability seems to be gone. This new site is not working so well on Firefox. (I am not even able to put the title in this message)

      I don’t have a lot of experience with adding accessibility to interactive buttons, but I know who does… and they’re going to be speaking at The InDesign + A11Y Summit next month:

      Hi. Yes, I’m registered for the conference. In the meantime, there’s a deadline … this week.

      Thanks

      Hi. I wanted to let you know that for some reason the alt text is now showing up (I think) when I fill in the Description in the PDF Options for the button.
      Thanks
