Hi Tom,

Thanks for your answer. OK, I will report a "bug" to ask for this feature request. I have found it on https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/bug/

Have a great day!

Jaap :)

Hi :)
I really think it would be best to file a "bug-report" and use the drop-down menus to make it a "feature request" but maybe someone on the Users List knows more about future plans in this direction. As i understand it "tagged pdf" is the best option at the moment. Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-accessibility] support of PDF UA

Dear people,

I'm new on this list and from the Netherlands. For websites the government in the Netherlands is 
following the accessibility guidelines from the W3C, the Web Content Accessibiliy Guidelines 
(WCAG). There are 3 levels of compliance and we will follow level AA. Also have we extended these 
guidelines with a number of extra rules. Together they form the Web Guidelines (Webrichtlijnen in 
Dutch).

According to these Web Guidelines, government sites are obliged to offer their documents in an open and 
accessible format. For now the possibilities of LibreOffice in exporting a file are sufficient: you have 
to export it to PDF/A-1a. In the near futere it will be necessary to use a new subversion of PDF, PDF/UA 
(Universal Accessibility). PDF/UA is more accessible than PDF/A-1a. More about this format you can read 
on ow.ly/8RxcQ<http://t.co/GZLiHl8b>.

I am curious if new versions of LibreOffice will make it possible to export files to PDF/UA. If 
LibreOffice is going to support this format, it will make a huge difference when LibreOffice is 
compared to other office suites.  And it wil be must easier to promote LibreOffice to be used by 
government organizations.
