Speed Up Your PDF Accessibility

PDF ACCESSIBILITY REMEDIATION (PAR)

AFTIA's automated remediation system streamlines PDF accessibility across your documents, bringing your organization closer to compliance standards with minimal manual intervention.

Backed by AFTIA Solutions β€” North America’s Leading Adobe Document Cloud Partner

Accessible by Design

AFTIA's PAR application leverages Adobe's AI-based PDF Services APIs to reduce approximately 90% of the effort required to make PDF documents accessible. PDF accessibility tag structure is automatically generated along with bookmarks and Alt-text for images and hyperlinks.

A before and after comparison report details the accessibility improvements and indicates where manual remediation issues may be required. Use our self-service web portal to remediate PDFs on your own timeline, paired with accessibility training to build your team's in-house expertise.

For urgent, high-volume compliance needs, our PAR Blitz package delivers a fully managed 1,000-document remediation in as little as one week or let us manually remediate your documents up to WCAG and AODA standards from start to finish.

Accessibility Is More Than Compliance, It's a Commitment to Equal Access

Whether serving the public, students, educators, or employees, your organization’s information should be accessible to everyone. Inaccessible PDFs create barriers that exclude individuals with disabilities from essential information and services. AFTIA’s β€œPDF Accessibility Remediation” (PAR) service helps education and government teams create inclusive, barrier-free communication with efficiency and confidence.

Recent regulatory extensions have opened a window to get ahead of upcoming compliance requirements but that window won’t stay open indefinitely. Organizations that act now will be ready long before it closes.
