This is a webinar being presented by TPGI, formerly the Paciello Group

Important Aspects of PDF Remediation
Presented on July 14, 2021 at 12pm ET
PDFs and other electronic documents are essential elements for online communication. As we strive to create an accessible digital experience for all users, we must not neglect the electronic documents hosted on websites. Ensuring such documents are accessible is a critical aspect of a comprehensive, accessible experience.
Our introductory webinar will provide a high-level overview of how to remediate electronic documents (specifically PDFs) for accessibility.
We will review the fundamental concepts of PDF remediation and techniques that you can implement in your documents upon completion of the webinar. A live Q & A will follow the presentation.
