Hi :)
Can you post a bug-report about it?
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport
Perhaps add "[wishlist]" to the subject-line?  I think post the bug-report now 
rather than leaving it.  Any small improvement in accessibility should be a 
priority in my opinion.  


Sometimes the defaults are not really thought about and are easy to change which 
helps new devs learn how to do coding :)  A good win for everyone.

Is there a down-side to having Pdfs tagged by default?  What does the tagged 
option do?


Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: [libreoffice-accessibility] Should Writer export tagged PDF and 
bookmarks by default?

Hi,

I have been thinking about ways to improve accessible authoring in LibreOffice 
Writer. As far as I know, Writer (in OpenOffice.org and in LibreOffice) is the 
only open source office software that can export tagged PDF, which is important 
for accessibility. When you open the PDF Options dialog (File -> Export as 
PDF...), the options "Tagged PDF" and "Export bookmarks" on the General tab and 
the option "Bookmarks and page" on the Initial View tab are unchecked by 
default. When you check them, they remain checked for later export commands. 
However, wouldn't it be better if these options were checked by default? 
Checking these options does not magically make your PDF documents accessible, 
because that depends on the quality of the ODF source. So should we request this 
feature now or should we wait until an accessibility checker for Writer becomes 
available?

Best regards,

Christophe
