Accessible PDF: Instructions, checklists and examples

Unfortunately, getting started in the world of accessible PDFs is not (yet) that easy. To begin with, you must first understand what an accessible PDF actually is and which guidelines and standards there is. Then you have to decide which software you want to use. And after you have decided on a software (or rather a package of software), you still have to follow a ton of different rules when creating documents.

With the articles on this website, we have tried to make this initially complex introduction as easy as possible for you. And to make the practical implementation easier for you, we have put together a package of documents for you. These documents will help you to think of everything during the creation process and to make your work more efficient.

With this checklist, you can ensure that you do not forget any important implementation measures and that no lengthy follow-up work is necessary.
