AccessiblePDF
What it is
AccessiblePDF is a web service from Palanisi Labs LLC for remediating PDF files. It tags uploaded PDFs, including scans, runs checks with veraPDF, and returns PDF/UA-1 files. A free compliance check is available before paid remediation. Processing performs OCR on image-only pages, included in the listed $0.50-per-page remediation price. Results can include tagged PDFs with a PDF/UA identifier and bookmarks, before-and-after validation results, and a plain-English change list; accessible HTML is available on request. The Tag Editor places a live page beside its tag tree so users can adjust reading order, tables, lists, headings, and alt text, preview with a screen reader, and revalidate changes. The service lists WCAG 2.1 AA, PDF/UA-1, ISO 14289-1, Section 508, ADA Title II, EN 301 549, and AODA among covered standards. It runs on the web and offers a free plan.
For and against
For
- Free compliance check before remediation
- OCR included for image-only pages
- Tag Editor supports reading-order adjustments
- PDF/UA-1 outputs and validation results
- US-region processing with stated encryption
Against
- Automated remediation cannot guarantee legal compliance
- Human review and extra checks are recommended
- Paid remediation starts at $0.50 per page
- Team plan costs $225 per month
The verdict
Its free check and multiple paid options may help organizations choose between automated and manual workflows, but publication still calls for human review.
Who it suits
It suits organizations preparing PDFs for accessibility standards and teams needing tagging, OCR, validation, or manual editing tools. Human review remains relevant because automated remediation does not guarantee legal compliance.
