Find out here and now
Check quickly and easily with axesCheck
For a final assessment, however,
further checks are required that only a human can perform;
for example, whether the sequence of elements is correct,
the tags correspond to the visually recognizable semantics,
or alternative texts adequately reflect
the core message of an image.

axesCheck®
Your web-based tool for
quick and easy validation of accessible PDF to comply with
ISO Standard 14289-1 (PDF/UA-1) and WCAG 2.1 AA
axesCheck is your time-saving tool to quickly and easily
check your PDF documents for compliance with
PDF/UA-1 and WCAG 2.1 AA during the process of
making them fully accessible and compliant.
Accessibility issues are easily found and displayed
- with a single click.
axesCheck validates against:
- PDF/UA - The ISO Standard for PDF Accessibility
axesCheck can be used to check all machine-verifiable
test criteria of the ISO standard 14289,
also known as PDF/UA.
UA stands for Universal Access and guarantees
the best possible user experience for end users of
the most widely used document format in the world.
- Which PDF/UA requirements is axesCheck evaluating?
- Basic requirements
Are the basic rules according to
the PDF specification adhered to?
- Logical structure
Are there errors in the tag tree that
make content inaccessible?
- Metadata and settings
Does the PDF have settings that limit accessibility
or is it missing important metadata that is
required for smooth processing?
- WCAG - The global guidelines for accessible web content
axesCheck makes it possible to quickly and easily
check all machine-verifiable success criteria of
the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines)
Level A and AA for a PDF.
- Which WCAG requirements is axesCheck evaluating?
- Perceivable
Can all content-relevant elements be perceived?
This includes requirements such as:
- Are text alternatives available?
- Is the contrast minimum met?
- Is it possible for software to distinguish
between content-relevant and
decorative elements?
- Is software able to access all
content-relevant elements?
- Operable
Are information, settings, and mechanisms
available to enable navigation and interaction
(for example, with form fields)?
These include:
- Is the title available?
- Is the tab order set for interactive elements?
- Understandable
Can users understand the content and user interface,
even if they use voice output, for example?
These include:
- Are natural language defined for all elements?
- Is there a Unicode equivalent
for each character?
- Robust
Are the basic rules according to
the PDF specification adhered to?
