Why should your files be accessbile?


  • Content availability

PDFs are the dominant downloadable document format across most websites, encompassing posters, e-books, applications, training material and more. Consequently, individuals from diverse backgrounds, including those with disabilities, depend on them to access vital content. PDF remediation serves to ensure that this demographic can access content seamlessly and aims to eliminate barriers.

  • Inclusivity

Incorporating accessibility features into documents serves several essential purposes: it fosters inclusivity, ensures compliance with legal standards, enhances user experiences and extends the reach and impact of information. It stands as a cornerstone in constructing an accessible society, where all individuals have equal access to knowledge, information and opportunities.

  • Obligatory Legal Compliance

Numerous countries, such as the United States (under the Americans with Disabilities Act) and the European Union (under the Web Accessibility Directive), impose legal obligations to ensure the accessibility of digital content, including PDFs, for individuals with disabilities. Non-compliance carries significant consequences, potentially resulting in substantial fines, litigation expenses and missed business prospects.

Which files can you send us?

We usually receive PDFs in one of three initial states: untagged, inadequately tagged or comprising solely images. Regardless of the condition of your documents, we are here to assist you in achieving accessibility standards.

  • PDF documents

  • Word documents

  • Powerpoint documents

  • InDesign documents

  • Illustrator documents

  • Text documents

  • We are currently not accepting Excel documents

Our role may also differ depending on the specific situation involving Personal Information.
