I think linking a PDF is less friendly to users who need Text-to-Speech technology, something the Braille Institute should be sensitive to...

What font does the PDF use?

Maybe their Atkinson font?

It does indeed :)

Kinda funny that you need to read the EULA before downloading it because once you have the PDF on your computer you have already downloaded the font.

That’s a good point. I have no idea if Text-to-Speech works with PDF.
