Hello SCEs,

Carolyn and I receive a lot of questions about PDFs and why they can’t simply be uploaded to our websites at Kalamazoo College. Due to the number of questions and requests we wanted to share a great article that helps explain why. As we know, PDFs can be very problematic for accessibility reasons but here is more evidence as to why they are problematic to all users.

Please read the Neilsen Norman Group article, PDF: Still Unfit for Human Consumption, 20 Years Later to learn more.
