How much does accessibility cost?
Adobe Acrobat 7.0 includes a number of very welcome accessibility features that you can now build into a PDF document. Adobe are quite proud of this and the Adobe site includes an entire site sub-section on Acrobat 7.0 and Accessibility that boasts:
Adobe helps make electronic information more accessible to people with disabilities including but not limited to: blindness, low vision, hearing, or motor impairments.
The, not so obvious, catch is that, if you want to create accessible PDF forms, you need a copy of Acrobat 7.0 Professional rather than Acrobat 7.0 Standard.
So the next time that someone asks how much accessibility costs, you can tell them.
$150 dollars or £82.87.

Most sites – even personal ones – have some sort of logo or corporate -like title. Once a site is ‘named’, there’s a reasonable desire to ensure that every page references the site’s logo or title.
