Accessible PDF Remediation for Cities, Counties and School Districts
Accessible PDFs for public bodies, checked and documented.
The ADA Title II rule requires state and local governments to make web content, including PDFs, meet WCAG 2.1 AA. Bodies serving 50,000 people or more must comply by April 26, 2027. Smaller ones, and special districts, have until April 26, 2028.
We fix your PDFs so that people who use screen readers and other assistive technology can read them, and we show you the evidence.

What you get for every document
- A remediated PDF that looks exactly like your original. The fix gives it:
- tags, a correct reading order and real headings;
- lists, and tables with header cells;
- alternative text for every meaningful image;
- labels on every form field;
- the document language and title;
- bookmarks on long documents.
- Real text on scanned pages, with the numbers proofread.
- A conformance report, itself an accessible PDF. It holds:
- the PDF/UA-1 validation result before and after, from veraPDF, the reference open-source validator;
- the list of alternative text and field labels we wrote;
- colour contrast measurements;
- any limitations, stated plainly.
What we promise, and what we do not
We promise that every delivered file passes PDF/UA-1 machine validation, and that its structure, images and labels are then reviewed against each page, not only machine-checked.
No official approval exists for accessible documents, so we do not sell one. We are not your lawyers, and this is not legal advice.
We measure colour contrast and tell you where it falls short. We do not change your design.

Before you send us everything
The rule does not require you to fix archived content, or documents posted before your compliance date that nobody uses to apply for or take part in a service. Moving old files to a clearly marked archive is often the cheaper answer. We will tell you which of your documents need fixing and which can be archived.
How to pay
We send a card-payment invoice link. We can also complete your vendor forms (W-9, vendor registration) and work from a purchase order.
Questions
- Which of our documents have to be fixed?
- The rule does not require you to fix archived content, or documents posted before your compliance date that nobody uses to apply for or take part in a service. Moving old files to a clearly marked archive is often the cheaper answer. We will tell you which of your documents need fixing and which can be archived.
- Will the remediated document look different?
- No. We add structure behind the page and do not change what is printed on it. We compare renders of every page before and after, and the conformance report gives the result.
- What exactly do you promise?
- Every delivered file passes PDF/UA-1 validation in veraPDF, the reference open-source validator, and its structure, images and form labels are then reviewed against each page, not only machine-checked. No official approval exists for accessible documents, so we do not sell one. This is not legal advice: compliance depends on all of your web content.
