The service can also be used to convert inaccessible files such as image-only PDF files, JPG pictures and Microsoft PowerPoint presentations into more accessible and less tricky formats. This service is provided at no charge for all Cal Poly students, faculty, staff and alumni. We refer to these services as Inclusive Technology. How does this service work? Follow the prompts to upload file(s) and provide your @calpoly.edu  or @alumni.calpoly.edu email address, and within a short time SensusAccess will send you a link to download your converted file(s). For a more detailed explanation of this service, please see the helpful support links and video below. Convert a Scanned PDF to a Readable/Searchable PDF Step 1: Choose the file you want to upload, then click the Upload button. (Note: You can upload multiple files at the same time as long as they are the same file type, such as PDF.) Step 2: Choose the type of conversion - in this case "Accessibility conversion." Step 3: Choose the target format - "Tagged PDF (text over image)" is usually the best option. If there are a lot of images in the book, then try choosing "Tagged PDF (image over text)." Step 4: Enter you Cal Poly email address. You will receive an email containing the converted file from SensusAccess within 10-15 minutes.
