PDF Accessibility Services

When it comes to accessibility, PDF files are capable of Section 508 compliance and more

For organizations needing to deliver Section 508 or otherwise certifiably accessible PDF documents, our service bureau is ready and waiting to serve you.

Accessibility Certification

We correct and certify PDF files with results guaranteed. This service is offered by quotation for each document processed.

To get started, email a few representative files to section508@appligent.com, and we'll respond with a comprehensive quotation within 24 hours.

FREE Demonstration!

We'll show you what your PDF's tags should really look like!

Perhaps you're looking to better understand accessibility, or you just need a tip, or you'd like to see our stuff. No problem.

Simply email us a PDF and pick a page you'd like us to make Section 508 compliant. We'll tag and return it to you within 48 hours at no charge.

Limit of one page / customer, no forms allowed.  We reserve the right to refuse this free service for extraordinarily difficult pages!

You can and should do better than Section 508

Section 508 ignores key document features which can severely restrict the actual usability of otherwise compliant content. As a result, it's possible for a PDF file to comply with Section 508, but still be functionally inaccessible.

Section 508 is silent on:

  • Ensuring content is tagged in correct order
  • Section headings, essential to effective navigation of longer documents
  • Bulleted and numbered lists
  • Footnotes and endnotes

Get the facts about Section 508 and PDF files.

Appligent Document Solutions' PDF Accessibility Services go beyond basic Section 508 requirements to deliver truly usable and maximally accessible PDF content.

Contact us today to learn more, or simply email us an example document to receive a quotation.
