Try This: Universal Design for Learning (UDL) for PDF’s
If you use PDFs in your course materials, be sure to convert them to a searchable format! It makes the document compatible with screen readers and makes it easier for students to search for relevant passages or pull exact quotes for papers using copy/paste. Getting in the habit of making this small change can make a big difference for students.
