Over 15 years of experience in making documents accessible compliant across the industry
Making documents accessible
The use of technology has rapidly accelerated in virtually every industry, from manufacturing to education. The move to digital makes tasks that once took a long time can now be completed in a much shorter timeline. Digital assets provide easy portability compared to their hard copy counterparts didn’t. Additionally, digital files, once made accessible, can also be consumed by print-disabled users. Universal accessibility is the ambition that seems achievable with the increased use of IT in different industries. This accessibility experience is guaranteed by Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. Therefore, the website and the documents hosted in them like, PDFs, etc., have to be made accessible to WCAG AA standards.
codemantra’s accessibilityInsight™ platform can remediate the various existing digital assets, thereby making them more accessible for print-disabled visitors who otherwise had no other option to consume this content. In addition, the platform is very robust and can be implemented at scale irrespective of the number of documents in the archive that need remediation. The solution additionally provides:
- Audit and assessment of catalogues & exhibits
- Assessment report generation
- Impose structural tags to ensure intelligent content reflow

- Recompile and validate content against PDF/UA and WCAG 2.1 standards
