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.
