How to Export an Accessible PDF Using Grackle

Important: To export an accessible PDF from Google Docs or Slides, use Export to PDF from the Grackle sidebar. Using File > Download > PDF from the Google menu will not produce an accessible PDF, even if accessibility issues have been fixed.

  1. Fix any accessibility issues reported by Grackle.
  2. On the Grackle sidebar, click Export to PDF.
  3. When prompted to grant Grackle access to Google Drive, click Allow.
  4. Select your @massart.edu account.
  5. When prompted to grant access to your Google account, click Continue.
  6. When you see the message Access Granted, click Close.
  7. Return to your document and click Export to PDF.
  8. On the Progress Monitor screen, click Start.
  9. When the conversion is complete, the message “Document is uploaded to Drive” will appear. The PDF can then be accessed as follows:
    • The PDF is saved in the same Drive folder as the original document.
    • Click View to open the PDF in your browser.
    • Click Download to save the PDF to your computer.
  10. Click Close to exit the Progress Monitor.
