Create Accessible PDF Files That Comply With Section 508











About:

Acrobat Accessibility & Section 508



Section 508 is only one part of the accessibility. 



I believe that accessibility is not only focused on people with disabilities or special needs, but also on people with abilities. I have more than 6 years of experience making digital materials accessible before posting them to the website. This Accessibility and Section 508 is one thing I have learned throughout the years, working from the private sector to government websites.



(requirements for all PDF documents)

  • Reading Order and Accessibility Tagging
  • Images Accessible
  • Making lists and tables that are accessible
  • Common Accessibility Problems With PDF Files Using Acrobat
  • Validating documents for layout and formatting
  • Applying a tag structure that matches reading order
  • Confirming links and footnotes are correctly tagged
  • Setting the correct tab order
  • Ensuring table structure is used with all tabbed and table content
  • Special issues with tables: data splits, table heads
  • Setting document properties and primary language
