Join us on 29th April (4PM BST) and discover how to transform your PDFs into accessible content
The battle to encourage businesses to shift away from PDFs has been a long one. As many of us know, PDFs can often be problematic for users with accessibility needs and rarely comply with open standards:
- They’re not responsive
- They’re not designed to be read on-screen
- They can be difficult to navigate
- It’s tricky to change their colour schemes and text size, which some users with visual impairments need to do
- They’re harder to maintain, and so easily become out of date
- Change is going to take time, but it is important.
Recently, the UK government updated its content design guidance for open formats. The update has underlined a commitment to open standards and clearly mandated GOV.UK publishers to provide accessible alternatives to PDFs.
But is this guidance what’s best for web users with disabilities?We’ve been speaking to industry experts and users with disabilities to truly understand the best way to deliver accessible content online. We’ve gained fantastic insight, which we want to share with you on this webinar.
Join us on April 29th (4PM BST) to hear Danny Bluestone (CEO and Founder of Cyber-Duck) explain why you should prioritise accessibility for your online content, and how to transform your existing PDF content to make it more accessible to a wider audience.
