Hello there,
I am a Comp Sci student (St Andrews, UK) helping out in a project (at DTU, Denmark), that aims at making computers more accessible to blind people.
They are particularly interested in making PDF documents more accessible to blind people, so I have been asked to focus on this.
From trying different PDF readers from the repositories, I believe the kind of functionality they are after has not yet been implemented. As such I would like to know if you know of anyone that is already working towards this for evince (so I can contribute) or if if I would need to start from scratch.
Hi Max,
There is some work on the way sponsorised by the Regional Government of Andalusia (Spain). See bugs
A video here:
DTU is interested in getting this functionality working for any PDF reader and in the shortest amount of time, so I have also contacted Okular's development team.
I haven't looked at either implementation yet, but as there are some time constraints I will most likely contribute to whichever would take
less time.
Could anyone please give me some feedback so I can move onto the next stage?
I guess you can use poppler changes for making okular accesible too.
