Blind User Shares How ChatGPT Became a Life Changer for Document Formatting
groovinhighness · reddit · 2026-08-03
A totally blind Reddit user shared how ChatGPT has granted him incredible autonomy in handling secretarial tasks like document formatting. As a screen reader user, ensuring proper formatting for research papers or cover letters used to require help from sighted friends or volunteers.
Now, he uses ChatGPT to generate and iteratively refine PDFs entirely on his own. His workflow involves prompting the model to format text, opening a separate chat to critique the output, and feeding that critique back into the original chat to perfect the document. Heading to law school soon, he notes that AI will be an invaluable helper for strict citation and formatting rules.
