PDF可访问性
PDFs are a great format to share content with students. 以下是一些最佳实践 when working with PDFs to make sure they are accessible.
Scanned PDFs
- 为什么扫描的pdf文件无法访问
-
- Scanned PDFs are image files, so they are not readable by screen reader software. Therefore, students who are blind or have low vision and use screen readers cannot 访问内容. Some examples of screen reader software are NVDA, JAWS, Apple VoiceOver或ChromeVox. 他们大声朗读内容给用户听.
- With scanned PDFs, students cannot use digital tools such as highlighting, searching 或者复制粘贴.
- Poorly scanned PDFs are difficult to read because the text is often grainy or blurred 或者有黑色边缘. Most students have trouble reading the content and might 感到不知所措、沮丧或分心.

- 如何修复扫描的PDF
-
Option 1: (Best option!)在网上找到原始文件或与您的 部门图书馆联络 定位可访问的版本. 如果没有可用的,则继续执行选项2.
Option 2: Use Ally’s alternative formats to convert the document. 这个选项并不完美 而且通常需要一些补救措施.
- Open the document and select alternative formats at the top of the screen.
- It is recommended to download both the OCRed PDF and HTML alternative formats to compare
the visual quality (text clarity and accuracy) and accessibility.
Note: OCR stands for Optical Character Recognition and means the document’s content is readable by screen readers, selectable and searchable. - 对两种备选格式进行视觉检查. 是否所有文本都可见? Are there 只需要稍加修改?

将HTML版本转换为Canvas页面. 然后将OCRed PDF上传到Canvas. Ally will
为他们提供可访问性分数.

To check the accessibility of a Canvas page, open the page and select edit. The gear 图标将显示在屏幕的右上角. - 修复任何剩余的可访问性问题. 如果还有很多问题,可以考虑去 back to option 1 and locating an accessible document or webpage with similar content. Consider using a slightly different document if it's accessible without converting or editing. 这可以节省你很多时间.
