About this Gig
Need your PDFs 100% accessible and legally compliant? I can help!
Non-compliant files can cause legal issues and block users who rely on assistive tech. As an accessibility specialist, I provide expert PDF remediation to ensure full compliance with ADA, Section 508, WCAG 2.1 (Level A/AA), and PDF/UA standards.
I use Adobe Acrobat Pro and validate every file using PAC (PDF Accessibility Checker) to guarantee 100% error-free, screen-reader-friendly results.
What I Will Do:
- Logical Reading Order: Properly sequenced for a smooth reading flow.
- Tagging Hierarchy: Correct tags for Titles, Headings (-), and Paragraphs ().
- Alt Text for Images: Descriptive text for visuals; decorative items set as artifacts.
- Table Accessibility: Clear Table Headers () and Table Data () tagging.
- Hyperlinks & Lists: Accessible lists and clear display text for links.
- Document Properties: Setup for correct language, title, and initial view.
Why Hire Me?
- Verified Compliance: Every delivery includes a passing report from Adobe and the PAC tool.
- Manual Remediation: Hand-coded tagging to fix complex errors automated tools miss.

FAQ
Q: What information or files do you need from me to start?
A: I just need your original PDF document. If you have the source file (such as an Adobe InDesign .indd file or a Microsoft Word .docx file), please share that as well, as it can sometimes make the remediation layout formatting process smoother.
Q: What compliance standards do you follow for PDF accessibility?
A: I ensure your documents fully comply with WCAG 2.1 (Levels A & AA), Section 508 (US Federal standard), ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act), and PDF/UA (Universal Accessibility) engineering standards.
Q: How do you verify that the PDF is fully accessible?
A: I perform manual tests using the built-in Adobe Acrobat Pro Accessibility Checker and run a final validation through the industry-standard PAC (PDF Accessibility Checker) tool. I ensure you get an all-green, error-free compliance report.
Q: Do you add Alternative Text (Alt Text) for images, or do I need to provide it?
A: If the images are straightforward (like a company logo or basic photo), I will write suitable Alt Text myself. However, for highly technical charts, complex medical diagrams, or specific graphs, it is best if you provide the exact descriptions to ensure accuracy.
Q: Can you handle scanned PDFs or documents with text inside images?
A: Scanned PDFs require an extra step called OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to convert the images into selectable text before tagging can begin. Please inbox me first with your file so I can evaluate the complexity and give you a fair custom offer.
Q: What happens if my document has more than 60 pages?
A: Don't worry at all! I easily handle large books, annual reports, corporate manuals, and massive documents. Just send me a message in my inbox with the file, and I will instantly create a tailored, discounted custom package for you based on the total page count.
