What does this symbol mean?
This is the symbol for a new tool that gives us the ability to translate PDF documents, all over the website, to another language. It ALSO will convert PDFs to electronic braille or an audio file. This tool will make our website more accessible to everyone in our district and community and especially those with special communication needs.
Here's how it works.
This is a screenshot from the Parent/Student page. These three links are all PDF files. To open the PDF normally, click the original link. In this case, it's the orange image.
- To translate the PDF to spanish (or other languages), click the blue icon.
- You will get this screen.
- Choose Translated Version...Español (or other language)...Download.
- You can now read or print the PDF in your language of choice.
Be patient. The larger the PDF file, the longer the translation takes to convert.
