Starting At 2PM ET

Increasingly, institutions such as federal agencies, state agencies, and higher education institutions require PDF documents to meet Section 508, WCAG 2.0/2.1, and other accessibility standards.
 
Your PDF files could be unusable by people with disabilities, setting you up for user complaints or ADA litigation. What special steps can you take to review PDF document accessibility?

While automated accessibility testing tools are valuable for identifying many accessibility issues, they often miss certain errors that require human judgment and context to detect. Come learn about the common accessibility errors that automated tools may miss and particular actions you can implement now from one of Microassist’s leading document remediation experts.
