Making your public documents ADA-compliant is important — but it doesn’t have to be complicated. There are three main approaches to document remediation, and one stands out as the best by far:
👉 DocAccess is the easiest, smartest, and most cost-effective solution.

🤝 Option 3: Use a Remediation Partner
If you need a fully remediated PDF or have a small number of files, we can connect you with a trusted partner.
What to expect:
-
Professionally remediated documents

Full compliance with WCAG 2.1 and Section 508
