FAQ
What standards do you follow for document remediation?
I ensure all documents meet the WCAG 2.1/2.2 (Level AA) and PDF/UA (Universal Accessibility) standards. This also covers Section 508 (for US government/education) and ADA compliance requirements for businesses.
Do you provide a compliance report?
Yes! For every PDF I remediate, I include a passing report from the PAC (PDF Accessibility Checker) tool. This serves as your professional proof that the document is technically compliant and ready for public use.
Can you remediate scanned documents?
Yes, but scanned documents require an extra step called "OCR" (Optical Character Recognition) to turn images into searchable text before they can be tagged for accessibility. Please contact me first if your documents are scans so I can provide a custom quote.
Will the visual layout of my document change?
In most cases, no. Remediation primarily involves "under-the-hood" work like tagging, adding alt-text, and setting the reading order. However, if a color contrast issue is found (e.g., light grey text on a white background), I will recommend adjustment to ensure it meets legal readability standards.
Can you handle complex tables and fillable forms?
Absolutely. I specialize in complex data tables (properly identifying headers and data cells) and making interactive PDF forms fully accessible to screen reader users, including proper tab order and form field labels.
