Accessibility creates equality
When making your online PDF documents accessible, you create a happier life and better workdays for people.
Web accessibility is the right thing to do.
Not just morally, but also legally.
Since 2018, The European Web Accessibility Directive has aimed to provide people with disabilities, e.g., lowered vision, better access to public services, websites, and mobile applications.
The directive imposes several requirements on online documents. Among others, the visually impaired must have access to files and have them read aloud using a screen reader.
Without the right software available, the directive means a more resource-intensive process when creating online PDF documents.
