Making PDFs ADA Compliant and Accessible

Christina posted the following, stating:

"As a special education teacher, I find this resource helpful.  This article discusses how to make PDFs ADA compliant and accessible for people with disabilities and how to make eLearning materials that are easy to read and have contrasting colors. Just like this blog suggests, in my teacher preparation program, I was told not to use PDFs at all - instead of PDFs, we were encouraged to use webpages and word documents."
