How can I covert a document to a different format?

Answer

You can use SensusAccess, a automated document conversion service that allows you to convert your readings into formats that are more useful for you or easier to work with such as mp3, Word and eBooks.

You can use SensusAccess to convert:

Slides and lecture notes
Picture of texts captured with your smart phone
PowerPoint presentations
PDF documents from Moodle
Journal articles
... and more!

SensusAccess is a great service if you want to make your readings available on the go if you are having difficulties with printed text or if you want to experiment with different learning styles (e.g. audio).

To convert a file use this Web Form and complete these steps:

Upload your document, add your text or paste a url to SensusAccess, you can upload one or more files, the form expands as you make your selections
Select how you want it converted i.e. mp3, braille, eBook or accessibility conversion
Enter your ATU email address and submit
When your file is ready, you will receive an email in your inbox.

You can make an accessible copy if:

You own the copyright (e.g. it's your own work)
You have permission from the copyright owner
The copyright has expired
You have a print disability or if it's for someone with a print disability

SensusAccess is automated and the documents you submit to the service are automatically deleted once they have been converted. You do not need to worry about keeping your privacy as SensusAccess does not store personal information.
