FAQs

What is PDF Remediation?

PDF Remediation is the process of improving a document so it meets accessibility standards, making it easier for all users, including those using assistive technologies, to access and understand the content.

How does remediation support WCAG/PDF-UA compliance?

The remediation process covers 23 WCAG PDF specific techniques, helping ensure documents align with recognised accessibility standards and best practices.

What happens during remediation?

During remediation, documents are processed to improve accessibility. This includes adding tagging structure, improving document semantics, and ensuring compatibility with assistive technologies such as screen readers.

What is the output of the remediation process?

The primary output is a remediated, accessible version of the original PDF. This version retains the original content while being enhanced to meet accessibility requirements.

Are alternative formats available?

Yes, in addition to accessible PDFs, documents can also be delivered in alternative formats such as HTML where required. HTML is commonly used in scenarios such as Intercept, but the primary remediation output remains the accessible PDF.

Does Recite Me support OCR for scanned documents?

Yes, Recite Me includes its own OCR service, which enables scanned or image-based PDFs to be converted into readable and structured content. This allows tagging and accessibility improvements to be applied even when the original document does not contain selectable text.

How are remediated documents delivered to users?

Remediated PDFs can be made available through your website or document workflows, allowing users to access an improved, accessible version of the original file.

Remediation groups can also generate a 301 redirect file, which can be implemented by a webmaster to automatically redirect existing PDF links to their remediated versions. This helps reduce the need to manually update links across your website.

Is remediation automatic?

Remediation can be automated based on workflows such as document detection or user activity, helping streamline the process while still allowing for review and prioritisation.

Can this scale across large document sets?

Yes, remediation is designed to scale, making it suitable for organisations managing large volumes of documents across multiple domains.
