Reiterating a question on stackexchange that went unanswered.
What is now (2019) considered the best resource for using LaTeX to produce "accessible" PDFs with images, tables, and math?
Have things improved since this question from 2012( https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions ... en-readers)? When Acrobat adds alt text, is it using a PDF standard? If it is just a matter of a PDF tag, doesn't it follow that pdflatex should be able to add it?
General ⇒ alt text for images in pdf (for screen readers)

alt text for images in pdf (for screen readers)
Ulrike Fischer is working on tagged PDF and Andrew Clifton on tagged documents using KOMA-Script or the standard classes.
Both are work in progress. Both provide alternative text independent from images.
But experts for this are really rare.
