Summary description: Access to formulas in PDF files by by assistive technologies

Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

We propose the axessibility package. PDF documents containing formulae generated by LaTeX are usually not accessible by assistive technologies for visually impaired people (i.e., by screen readers and braille displays). The axessibility package manages this issue, allowing to create a PDF document where the formulae are read by these assistive technologies, since it automatically generates hidden comments in the PDF document (by means of the /ActualText attribute) in correspondence to each formula.
