Introduction to CSS for Paged Media - Tony Graham

This tutorial takes an eat-your-own-dog-food approach to showing how to use CSS for paged media. Using the HTML text of its own slides, the tutorial session will progressively reveal and explain the CSS styles that are used to format and paginate the slides. By the end of the session, the fairly undifferentiated mass of text will be formatted with running headers and footers, page numbers and page number crossreferences, bleeds, CMYK colours, footnotes, top- and bottom-floats, and other features that appear in paged media but not in a browser.

The session will also describe accessibility features of PDF and include a demonstration of a screen reader recognizing lists in the PDF and avoiding reading the headers and footers on each page.

Because of the comparatively short duration of the tutorial, there is only time to cover the CSS features specific to paged media. Attendees should already be familiar with CSS syntax and with using common properties such as border, padding, font-size, and so on.
