After remediation, we perform a comprehensive final review to verify your document meets relevant accessibility requirements. Every detail is checked, using both automated tools and manual testing, so that you can have peace of mind.

5. We Return Your Fully Compliant Document

Once your document passes our checks, we send it back to you as an accessible, ready-to-use PDF, so you can confidently publish or share it with your audience.

What Actually Goes Into Professional PDF Remediation

Accessible PDF remediation is more than running a checker or clicking an “auto-tag” button. Many PDFs appear fine at a glance but fail when used with screen readers, keyboard navigation, or magnification tools.
Our process begins by analyzing the document structure at a tag level. We correct heading hierarchies, reading order, semantic structure, alt text, lists, tables, and form fields to ensure assistive technologies can correctly interpret the content.
Every correction is completed manually by an accessibility specialist and reviewed again before delivery. We validate the final document using accessibility checkers and real assistive-technology testing, so files don’t just pass tools they actually work for users.

FAQ

Your Web Accessibility Questions Answered

What is an accessible PDF?

An accessible PDF is structured so assistive technologies (screen readers, magnifiers, Braille displays) can read and navigate the content. That means proper tags, logical reading order, alt text for images, correct form-field labeling, semantic tables, etc.

What standards do accessible PDFs need to meet?

Commonly: PDF/UA (ISO 14289), WCAG 2.1 (Level AA) and, for U.S. government or federally funded entities,  Section 508.

Do all PDFs have to be accessible?

If your organization is a federal agency, a contractor, or receives federal funding, yes. Many states and institutions adopt similar requirements. Even for private organizations, accessible PDFs greatly increase usability and inclusion.

What happens if PDFs aren’t accessible?

Users who rely on assistive technology may be unable to read or interact with your documents. For government-related organizations, non-compliance could lead to legal risks or exclusion from contracts. Poor accessibility also reduces usability for all users.

How long does remediation take?

It depends on size and complexity, simple documents may be ready in a few days; complex multi-page reports, forms, or batches may take longer. We’ll provide a clear timeline after reviewing your materials.

Can you fix my PDFs and documents too?

Yes. We manually remediate PDFs so they meet ADA Section 508 and WCAG 2.2 standards, ensuring they work properly with screen readers and assistive technology. They come back to you 100% ADA Section 508 compliant!

How long does accessibility remediation take?

It depends on the size and complexity of your site or documents. Smaller projects may take just a few days; larger ones may take a few weeks. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start.
