PDF Accessibility
Accessibility widgets and overlays can improve website usability, but documents require proper structure, reading order, tagging, headings, alt text, and semantic remediation. WebAbility helps teams move from surface-level access to accessible documents users can actually navigate.
Make your PDF Accessible (external link)
Accessible documents are easier to read, navigate, search, and understand. With proper tagging, semantic structure, reading order, alt text, and screen reader compatibility, your PDFs become usable for every visitor while supporting ADA and WCAG 2.2 requirements.
Accessible PDFs matter across every sector
Government agencies can meet ADA Title II electronic-document deadlines without replacing their existing CMS or workflow.
Universities & schools can make syllabuses, course packs, and financial-aid documents reachable by every student.
Legal & compliance teams can produce audit-ready conformance reports and satisfy procurement requirements without manual remediation.
Healthcare providers can ensure patient forms, discharge instructions and benefit guides reach people who rely on assistive technology.

HOW IT WORKS
1
Add your site to WebAbility and install the snippet in minutes. PDFs across your website are automatically detected and queued for accessibility processing.
No CMS migration required2
WebAbility reviews document structure, reading order, headings, tables, and accessibility issues while generating AI-assisted image descriptions for human review.
Built for scalable remediation workflows3
Download tagged PDF/UA files, share accessible browser views, and access document-level conformance reporting directly from your dashboard.
Accessible files you control and ownAccessibility that goes further
Accessibility overlays and accessible viewers can improve access to web experiences. WebAbility builds on that foundation by helping organizations create accessible document structures, downloadable tagged PDFs, and remediation workflows designed for long-term compliance.

On the roadmap
We believe accessibility should be measurable, transparent, and scalable. These features are currently in development and reflect where the platform is headed next.
Independent PDF/UA validator results surfaced alongside each document, providing proof of conformance, not just a claim.
Track document engagement, accessibility interactions, language usage, and remediation activity across your entire organization in one place.
Native integrations for Granicus, CivicPlus and Canvas LMS, going beyond the universal snippet that already works everywhere today.
ADA Title II preparedness
The DOJ's ADA Title II rule includes electronic documents such as PDFs, Word files, Excel sheets, and PowerPoint presentations. Accessible documents are becoming an essential part of digital compliance strategies across public-sector organizations.
