Kate- accessibility
- When you are using Adobe that's the PDF Reader then...
- ...which I make 140% because it's tiny. My lecturer uses a lot of scanning from Adobe which obviously makes it even smaller - because then you've got 2 pages on 1. He puts the materials on Blackboard, which is great, but then they're really really small so to print them off is impossible.
- Do you open it in Adobe, read it at 140% but not bothering to print it out because it's so small, or do you save it with larger print?
- Sometimes, when it's scanned in, you can't actually change the font size. So I prefer reading it from printed copy rather than off the computer screen as I get headaches, what have you... so I do tend to print it, but often I give up on the printed version and go back to the computer. Then it takes me longer to read it. I have to sort of break it down so if you have a 40-page document which would take me 3 hours to read, and I have to do about an hour and then stop and do something else and then come back and do a bit more.
