Adobe Acrobat Drop-in Clinic for Thesis & Dissertation accessibility reports
Preparing your thesis or dissertation for the School of Graduate Studies format review on October 26? Drop by the computer lab on the second floor of Miller Nichols Library for a quick 15- to 20-minute, hands-on walkthrough for converting your Microsoft Word document cleanly to PDF, accessing Adobe Acrobat Pro on the library workstations, and generating the required Adobe accessibility reports needed for your review and final submission. Come prepared by reviewing what to bring with you on the Graduate Writing Initiative registration page for the clinic.
