PDF Perfect Solutions: Accessibility Starts With Structure
Digital Accessibility means removing barriers so that people with disabilities can interact with documents, websites, and other information technology. Today, many tools exist that enable people with blindness, low vision, or learning disabilities to access and read documents, websites, and other sources of information. All users can now have equal access to information and functionality.
Our accessibility remediation services provide organizations with the expertise and capabilities to enhance your existing content to assure a good reading experience and comply with the law. Additionally, structuring content to make it accessible for all also improves online discoverability because after all, computers are also visually impaired!
Headings are used by assistive technology (AT) for easier navigation through a document

Tables are marked up and identified for AT to read it as a table
Bookmarks are added in long PDFs to help with navigation
Content is organized so that it reads in a logical order
