What types of documents can be remediated?

We can remediate a wide range of documents, including PDFs, Microsoft Word files, PowerPoint presentations, Excel spreadsheets, and other formats. Whether your document contains text, images, forms, or tables, we can ensure it meets accessibility standards.

How long does the remediation process take?

The time it takes to remediate a document depends on its complexity and size. Simple documents can be remediated within 12 – 24hrs, while larger or more complex documents may take longer. After reviewing your documents, we will provide an estimated timeline.

Do you provide a certification for remediated documents?

Although there is no official certification body for document remediation, we ensure that all remediated documents meet the required accessibility standards, such as WCAG and PDF/UA. To verify compliance, we provide a **PDF Accessibility Checker (PAC) report**, which is a detailed analysis showing that your document adheres to accessibility guidelines. The PAC report highlights areas like reading order, alt text for images, and proper tagging structure, ensuring that your document is fully accessible. Additionally, we can provide a statement of compliance or an accessibility report to confirm that your documents meet the necessary standards.

Is a document accessibility audit required before we can proceed with remediation?

While an audit is not always required, we recommend it as a best practice to identify any accessibility issues upfront. An audit provides a clear starting point, ensuring that all barriers are identified and addressed during the remediation process. If you already know what needs to be remediated, we can proceed directly with the service.
