Creating documents such as PDFs with digital accessibility in mind will help you ensure that your content can be read and understood by as wide an audience as possible. That's why AbilityNet is excited to offer a webinar on "Introduction to Accessible PDFs".
Why Accessible PDFs Matter
PDFs are a common format for sharing documents, but they can often be a barrier for disabled people if not created with accessibility in mind. This could be staff trying to access information or your customers downloading content off your website. Accessible PDFs ensure that all users, including those who use screen readers or other assistive technologies, can access and interact with the content effectively.

Join us for this informative session where AbilityNet's Principal Accessibility Consultant, James Baverstock, who specialises in document accessibility, will cover the basics of creating accessible PDFs:

This webinar is ideal for anyone involved in creating or distributing digital documents, including:
