You would think that all those websites that have to note "The accessibility document may be inaccessible" would give people a clue. And it's past ridiculous that Adobe/ISO haven't fixed the core problem, it's only been a known problem for a quarter of a century and all they need to do is make tagged PDFs (ie accessible to screenreaders) the default, rather than optional.

Of course none of that can fix inaccessible visual formatting, but it at least opens up a second access path.
