Sorry.  I wish I had more specifics to share.  The intern might need to experiment with the 2017 version of Adobe Pro and compare that with the new Adobe DC product.  There is probably a free trial for DC.

Thanks, Tim! I don’t suppose there is a cheat sheet or any sort of guide on how to do this? I am just looking to help out my former colleague, so she can accommodate this intern. So anything easy  to implement or learn would be helpful. Thanks. Sent from my iPhone

It will require some pretty solid general technology and special screen reader compitance.  It wasn't simple to do and it didn't seem very efficient in my limited trial.  I'd be more concerned that the review would need to be synchronized with document management software and ESI compliance.

She is trying to accommodate a blind attorney, whose primary task will be document review and—she hopes anyway—redaction. I am not aware of any, and I suspect there are none. But I want to do my due diligence and see if I can help her. Thanks!
