FWIW, in the past I've scanned forms into FileMaker layouts, then
created fields on top of the forms for data entry. Once completed, I
created standalone versions of the database and distributed them to
customers. FileMaker has since changed the name of their Development
Kit product to FileMaker Advanced, but it still should be capable of
creating these standalones (which you can distribute freely).
Most of my customers prefer my forms apps to the apps available on
Windows. Some of these apps don't let you change font styles and sizes,
which can be a problem when you have to squeeze long government titles
into tiny fields.

Its a bit more lower level that the normal discussions of access
cards, but how do your OS X users make use of GSA forms? The forms
from GSA come in the form of 1) Acessible FormNet, $39 a license, and
PC only, 2) PDF, which isn't fillable or savable, or 3) FormFlow,
which doesn't exist any longer, and PC only at that.
Our previous tool was Inform Filler, which is OS 9 only (thus, no
Intel machines), and generally a funk program all around. Are there
any better solutions people are using, other than having someone turn
the PDFs into fillable forms, and then buying a boat load of Acrobat
Standard licenses?
