Hi brian, I did a google search on this a couple of months ago and turned up a malarky blog post where some one had used the text to speach feature of adobe for mac to describe all the fields and then some tricky way to get to the first one and thus fill out a form. It seemed ridiculous to me. Maybe it will take a law sute to get adobe off it's can and producing accessible mac software. For now, rest assured that your imagination is not playing tricks on you. The process is very broken.
The recommended mac visionaries solution is pdf pen pro which has a price tag attached. I've cheated and used my virtual machine for years because I have one and can't really justify the expense of pdf pen. Best, Erik Burggraaf Freelance jack of many trades!
