Inhalt Das PDF (Portable Document Format) als Format, das plattformunabhängig eine originalgetreue Darstellung gewährleistet, ist allgemein verbreitet für die Publikation von Forschungsergebnissen. Hinsichtlich Barrierefreiheit bereitet diese stets identische Darstellung eine Herausforderung, die erst bewältigt werden kann, wenn die Inhalte unabhängig vom visuellen Layout greifbar und auch mit assistiven Technologien bedienbar sind. Wie eine Strukturierung der […]
