PDFS that are flyers or very complex images can be very difficult to tag and make accessible. In this instance, we recommend making the flyer an artifact and attach the accessible readable content as a separate page. Sighted users can view the flyer and users who use a screen reader will skip the image and go right to the accessible content.
