What AccessiblePDF is
AccessiblePDF is a web service for making PDF documents accessible. Upload a PDF, including a scan, for tagging and checks with veraPDF; the service returns a PDF/UA-1 file. Image-only pages receive OCR during processing, included in the $0.50, paid once remediation price, billed at $0.50 per page with no minimums. A free compliance check is available before remediation. Results include a tagged PDF with a PDF/UA identifier and bookmarks, validation results from before and after the work, and a plain-English change list. Accessible HTML is available on request.
The Tag Editor presents the live page beside its tag tree. Users can change reading order, tables, lists, headings, and alt text, preview with a screen reader, and revalidate their edits. The maker lists standards including WCAG 2.1 AA, PDF/UA-1, ISO 14289-1, Section 508, ADA Title II, EN 301 549, and AODA. Automated remediation does not guarantee legal compliance; files should receive human review, and the maker recommends PAC and screen-reader checks before publication. AccessiblePDF is made by Palanisi Labs LLC.
