HR will push back if the [handbook] isn’t usable by screen readers. Run a full accessibility fix on the [handbook] PDF: add structural tags for headings and lists, supply meaningful alt text for all images, ensure reading order is correct, and produce a short report listing any complex tables or forms that still need manual review.

We need to publish the employee handbook to the intranet and must comply with accessibility standards, but the current PDF is a messy export from desktop publishing. Tell me how to assess the severity of accessibility failures, recommend whether to fix the PDF or recreate the document in Word/HTML, outline the steps and estimated effort for each option, and advise which approach best reduces legal risk while staying on our [deadline=two-week] publication timeline.

Real. Every job here was drawn from what people in real roles were actually seen doing in Acrobat — not a feature checklist.

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
