Legal requirements for document accessibility?

[Geoff Hart <ghart -at- videotron -dot- ca>]

Kate Salm wondered: <<I was wondering if anyone knew of the legal  
requirements for font size and publication accessibility and where to  
obtain copies- specifically pertaining to font size.  We have design  
standards, but no copies of the actual laws.  I know there is  
something out there, I just can't find it, and searching the ADA  
website turned up a lot of design standards for buildings but not  
anything on documents.>>

Possibly do some searching here: http://www.section508.gov/
