PDF accessibility: Governance and strategy
Date: Thursday, September 24
Time: 2:00—3:00 pm (EDT), 11:00 am—12:00 pm (PDT)
Digital accessibility regulations such as the European Accessibility Act (EAA), the Accessible Canada Act (ACA), and Australia's Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) apply directly to PDFs, and they all have active compliance deadlines.
PDFs present a uniquely difficult challenge. They're scattered across sites in the thousands, created by different teams and vendors, and tedious to remediate.
As an accessibility leader, you’re most likely tasked with solving this large issue. In this webinar, you’ll get strategies for managing PDF accessibility across an entire organization.
-
How a PDF's origin should shape your remediation strategy, whether it’s auto-generated, hand-crafted by staff, or supplied by a third party.
-
How to use Adobe Acrobat's accessibility tools to test an individual PDF before it’s published.
-
How to monitor and report on thousands of PDFs at scale with Axe Monitor.
-
How to prioritize PDF remediation and make a plan based on impact.
