Free PDF Accessibility Self-Check

Answer a few quick questions about your PDF and get an instant estimate of whether it's likely accessible — plus a prioritised list of what to fix. Everything runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

Open your PDF in Adobe Acrobat (or your PDF editor) and answer each question. Not sure about one? Choose "Not sure" — we'll flag it to verify. This is a guided self-assessment, not a substitute for a full audit or an automated checker like PAC.

How to read your result

This check covers the issues that most often make PDFs inaccessible. A green result means your PDF likely covers the basics — but only a full review (including an automated checker such as PAC 2024 and screen-reader testing) can confirm true PDF/UA conformance. For the complete picture, see our PDF accessibility checklist, and if you have many documents or a legal deadline, A11ytek can remediate them for you.
