I'm helping to supply some info for a proposal to a county organization to
do redo their site and make it 508c compliant, I've been reading on Adobe's
web on Acrobat 5.0 and the accessibility features they are starting to put
into it but its geared basically to Windows, my question is there a
breakdown of what type of machines are being used for accessibility, what
stats are out there. Sounds good what Adobe is doing but at this point it
seems like a good idea to have an HTML version of the PDF because not
everybody will be using Windows.

Thanks for any help,

Scott
