Add ability to upload PDF files and bookshare would covert them into the corect file formats

Can you add the ability where we can upload PDF files of all of the scan books and bookshare would put them in the corect fromats since it is hard to do it with Math texbooks and the best way is to do it by PDF.

    MichaelMichael shared a merged idea: dd the ability to upload PDF and KESI files for colonter people who are scanning books.  ·   · 

    We are definitely looking at how to handle PDFs that were created with accessibility in mind, and also working on tools that will help to create accessible math equations, graphs, etc.

    Can you provide more details on the methods or tools that you are using to create these resources initially?

        We are using WORD, tab to INSERT, tab to CHART, and then use the left bar to decide what we need to create. We can use the braille29 font and 24 point in order that the braille that we create is the correct size to read.
