FAQ

Can this quick check certify PDF/UA compliance?

No. It is a preliminary browser check, not a PDF/UA conformance test or assistive-technology audit.

Which accessibility items does the check review?

It reviews title, language, extractable text, page count, and basic metadata signals available in the browser.

Can it verify reading order and alternate text?

No. Reliable tag order and image alternate-text validation require a dedicated accessibility checker.

Why does a scanned PDF receive a warning?

Pages with little extractable text may be image-only and need OCR plus manual accessibility work.

Does the report change the uploaded PDF?

No. It downloads a separate text report and never edits the source document.
