Hello all,

The Mate developers have shipped accessibility features on the
Atril PDF Viewer:
https://github.com/mate-desktop/atril/pull/285#issuecomment-346789007

Could it be possible for some of you to test it and give us your feedback?


Personally I do not have accessibility issues.
However I've assisted individuals whom I've personally met thru my membership in non-computer &/or non-accessibility oriented groups.

I saw a reference to this post on debian-user.
It attracted my attention as within the last 4 hours I acquired a need to conveniently extract data from some PDF documents.
I've been involved in (hardware primarily) QC/QA issues.
I am retired -- therefore have time.

HOWEVER neither
  1. your link does not tell an outsider what were the goals your
     modification wished to accomplish
*NOR*
  2. does http://mate-desktop.org/ give any any hint of what Atril sets
     out to do, nor any details of how it tries to fulfill goals. It
     states it forked from a program I never heard of in order to
     satisfy unknown goals.

Why should I get involved?

P.S. Documentation appears to be an ongoing problem with FOSS projects.
     [ OK it is a problem with proprietary products -- shouldn't FOSS
       be better? ]

IOW - Give me enough information to determine if I can be useful ;}
