(edit: is mir egal ob die ein offiziell anerkannter gemeinnütziger verein sind oder nicht, momentan hab ich kapazitäten)

@ppatel @lunareclipse Thank you! Like I said, in this specific case it is just plain text, no images, no tables, a few hundred words. Some paragraphs and lots of unordered lists.

I am perfectly capable of using markup languages, I just want it to be easily downloadable even for non-technical users, which usually doesn’t work so well with HTML. Sounds like epub might be the way to go, though I can just as easily offer both a markdown and an epub version

@fastfinge Thank you!

@lunareclipse It surprises me though, I would have thought that at some point in the last 25 years or so that pdf has been the default document type we would have managed to make them accessible…? Clearly I continue to be too optimistic about these things

@lunareclipse Yeah, it's too bad that html is usually not accepted as a document type, I will need to see what I can do

@WeirdWriter Thank you, this is helpful.

@chaos thank you!

Hey blind people, what is the recommended accessible format for distributing text-only content? So that a short text of a couple hundred words is browsable, searchable and the structure is understandable?

Am I correct is assuming that a well-structured PDF with all the titles set correctly would do the trick? Or is there some secret file format that is much better suited?

The document is intended to be distributed as downloadable file, not as a website.

(Sighted people feel free to boost but for the love of everything please do not try to answer)

Edit: So what I have gathered

• PDF actually a terrible option
• HTML good, but not easily downloadable
• Epub probably good, and easily downloadable
• Markdown might be preferred for people that know how to work with them
• Why the fuck is this still so difficult in the year 2026

@mediumflow @lobbycontrol Du brauchst keine Lizenz um eine Zeitung zu drucken. Pressefreiheit und so
