Title: RE: [SEC508] PDF and high contrast

>> Does the Adobe Reader high-contrast setting work on image-only PDFs?

> No it doesn't high contrast works by distinguishing between the text components (fonts) and the background - the wall paper the fonts have been pasted onto. Image only PDFs are all wall paper, no font.

Thanks Greg, that's what I thought.  Don, I think that is the explanation for your customer's problem.  The people offering suggestions about changing settings don't realize how crude are the PDFs that Federal employees encounter!
