Re changing to an accessible format: I'm not sure the publishing folks understand about accessible formats, although I sent along a link that explained the issue in some detail. I've had similar issues with JFA before, which is why I stopped doing reviews for them; publishing folks seem to *really* not understand why everyone else isn't using the same shiny new programs and formats as they are.

I'm not really stressing about this, so don't apologize. Thank you for bringing the Maureen McHugh story to my attention though: it's a fun story, and it's kind of interesting to see that the blind metaphor still hasn't gotten old for SF writers.
