Retail PDF Remediation

I have an inaccessible PDF(s) where do I start?

Microlink is here to help you make your everyday PDFs accessible for disabled people. No job is too small, as we can remediate one page if required.

• What does “remediation” mean?
  It means fixing your PDFs so that disabled people find them easier to use.
• Making your PDFs accessible: We make sure your PDFs meet accessibility standards (PDF/UA and WCAG 2.2 AA), so they work well with screen readers.
• What’s a screen reader?
  It’s a tool that reads out loud what’s on the screen, helping blind or visually impaired people use digital content.

How much will it cost?

• Free check-up: We’ll check your PDF(s) for free to see if they are ready to be remediated. We’ll check things like colour contrast, tags, and fonts.
• Checking complexity: We’ll review your PDFs for free to see if pages have standard or complex content. Please note blank pages are excluded.
• Requesting a quote: Once we have checked and undertaken a complexity assessment of your files this will help us to prepare a more accurate quote for you.

• Costs:
  • Our costs are volume dependent, and we aim to make them affordable to our customers/clients.
  • We can discuss retail PDF remediation costs in more detail on a call or by email and look forward to working on your files.

How quickly can you turn this around?

• Retail PDF Remediation: Our retail PDF remediation service is designed to remediate up to a maximum of 1500 pages per month or a maximum of 70-75 pages per day, but this is complexity dependent.
• PDF remediation at scale: If you require PDF remediation at scale, for example 1.5K+ pages per month remediating on average 70-75 pages per day, then please do email us at digital.accessibility@microlinkpc.com.

  Just one file or a few that represent the rest. For example, three to five files.

  As part of our paid for service if the issues can be fixed, we’ll fix them for you. Or if they are more complex, we’ll let you know what’s needed.
