Description: Back by popular demand, this series from the Spring 2025 semester returns. The recent Title II revision (the Final Rule) mandates that all digital content meet accessibility standards, ensuring usability for all users. Part of the Digital Accessibility Series, this session focuses on PDF files. PDF files can be among the most challenging to remediate.

In this session, we will address the common challenges associated with PDF remediation. The workshop will explore typical accessibility issues found in PDF files. Participants will have the opportunity to use Adobe Acrobat’s built-in accessibility checker and practice with this tool.

Learning Outcomes: Participants will be able to…

1) Identify common accessibility issues with PDF files.
2) Discuss some limitations to remediation of PDF files.
3) Evaluate the accessibility of PDF files using Adobe Acrobat built-in accessibility checker.
