Navigating Complex Challenges in PDF Accessibility Compliance

Addressing accessibility compliance challenges in the PDF industry involves navigating complex standards such as WCAG, PDF/UA, and Section 508. While Adobe Acrobat offers powerful features, it often fails to ensure full PDF accessibility.

More so, generating comprehensive reports and meeting documentation requirements for authorities like HHS can be daunting, while complex document structures pose validation challenges.
