Bullet Structure Revealed

In this episode of Chax Chat, Chad and Dax dig into a deceptively simple topic that has a big impact on accessibility: lists. While bullets and numbers may seem like basic formatting choices, the way they are structured behind the scenes can dramatically change how assistive technology interprets and reads content. They break down the anatomy of a properly tagged list in a PDF and explain why those tags matter more than most people realize. From real-world examples of how screen readers behave when list structures are incorrect to surprising quirks like how certain bullet styles are announced, this episode highlights the gap between visual design and actual usability. Whether you're creating documents in Word, InDesign, or remediating in Acrobat, you'll walk away with practical insights to help ensure your lists aren't just formatted correctly - but truly accessible.
