  <title><![CDATA[Design Accessible PDFs with LaTeX]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<div>LaTeX-generated PDFs, especially those with complex math, have traditionally been hard to make accessible.&nbsp;However, recent updates to the LaTeX kernel have made it possible to make most standard documents more accessible for students with vision-related disabilities. As of April 2026, updated Title II requirements make this type of accessibility improvement <strong>mandatory</strong> for our materials.<br><br>During this workshop, we'll explore how accessible documents benefit all students, discuss some basic examples, and then learn how to enable the new features.&nbsp;<br><br>This is an interactive workshop with active work time built in to experiment with new features. Participants should ensure they bring a laptop with an updated <strong>(2025 TeXLive or fully up-to-date MikTeX)</strong> local installation of LaTeX during the session.<br><br>This workshop is facilitated by Hunter Lehmann,&nbsp;director of Undergraduate Advising in the School of Mathematics. <a href="https://forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=u5ghSHuuJUuLem1_Mvqgg0K1hAa8O0dMm7A08bkfHUFUOUtDM1hOUzBWRURIN0pYNDZUMUhZQ000MS4u">Register here</a>.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><em>The </em><a href="https://ctl.gatech.edu/"><em><strong>Center for Teaching and Learning</strong></em></a><em> enhances the learning and teaching environment at Georgia Tech by encouraging a fully engaged, sharing community with communication networks, resources, and innovative programs for faculty, postdoctoral scholars, and graduate students.</em></div>]]></body>
