Normally the bits are *not* available, since illicit copying of machine-
readable forms is (probably correctly) perceived as a threat to book sales.
It would seem reasonable to make some sort of special arrangements for
the blind and near-blind, but I don't know whether any of the technical
publishers has so far been motivated enough to sort out the legal and
technological issues.
