axes4 / axesPAC
Accessible PDF (PDF/UA) Simply Done
Solutions for making accessible PDF (PDF/UA)
We make PDF documents accessible to everyone
for a more accessible and better world
axesPAC is "PDF/UA-Ready"
Create, show, read, share, publish and navigate in
PDF/UA compatible PDF documents
|

Accessible PDF
A fully PDF/UA compliant PDF can be just as
accessible as a WCAG compliant website
|

Automatically check PDFs for accessibility to comply with
ISO Standard 14289 (PDF/UA) and W3C/WCAG recommendations
With axesPAC you can integrate automated PDF/UA and WCAG validations
directly into your systems and processes via API.
This allows you to automatically validate large volumes of
PDF documents and process the results in a machine-readable format.
axesPAC was earlier named axesSense.
The new name, axesPAC,
makes it clearer what the solution is based on
The PAC Engine;
the technology behind the globally established:
PDF Accessibility Checker (PAC)

What makes axesPAC unique
- Proven PDF/UA engine:
axesPAC is based on the validation mechanisms of PAC,
the globally established standard for PDF accessibility testing
- Automated, scalable workflows
- Compliant with accessibility standards
- PDF/UA and WCAG checks as API:
Just like with axesPDF, PAC or axesCheck:
axesPAC covers all machine-verifiable
PDF/UA and WCAG requirements
- Seamless integration with existing systems or software:
axesPAC can be easily integrated into systems,
platforms, or processes using the REST API
- Clear, machine-readable results:
- Save time and money

axesPAC
Automatically check PDFs for accessibility
to comply with
ISO Standard 14289 (PDF/UA) and
W3C/WCAG recommendations
Check PDF accessibility in an
automated and scalable way
Checking/validation of PDFs for accessibility
can be done one file at a time - for example with:
But if it concerns large amounts of PDF files
it will not work with manual handling
- it will take an unreasonable amount of time
and be very costly.
Then automation is required instead - with axesPDF.
axesPAC builds on the same trusted
checking routines as PAC, but allows you to
check large numbers of PDF documents
automatically and at scale.
Unlike PAC, axesPAC requires a
license key (API Key) from axes4.
axesPAC is available in two editions:
axesPAC On-Premise / SDK
Runs on your infrastructure as a local web service.
If you use the .NET platform,
you can also integrate axes4 Matterhorn checks
directly into your own software by using
the axesPAC SDK.
Technical documentation:
axesPAC Cloud
A hosted solution provided by axes4.
Through a Web API, you can upload
PDF documents and have them validated
against the Matterhorn checks.
Technical documentation:
axesPAC allows you to automate
the whole checking/validation process and
check large numbers of PDF documents at once:
- Automate the testing process
With axesPAC, checking PDF files for
PDF/UA and WCAG compliance literally runs itself.
Check your PDF files from a folder structure or
based on a specific trigger event.
- Clear, machine-readable test results
The output of axesPAC in JSON format
provides you with all results data in a
machine-readable form.
You can decide for yourself how you want
to process and use the results data.
- Save time and money
axesPAC saves you time twice:
on the one hand, it relieves you of manual checking,
and on the other hand, evaluations can be specifically
aggregated, further processed, and even used again
as input for other applications.
- Scales arbitrarily in scalable workflows
Do you want to check a file every time you
upload one to the website or do you want to
test your PDFs for compliance directly as
part of batch processes?
No problem!
axesPAC automatically scales with you.
General note:
For a final accessibility 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 adequatel
reflect the core message of an image.
System Requirements
- axesPAC requires the .NET8 Hosting Bundle.
You can download it from
Microsoft's Download .NET. page.
- axesPAC runs on all Windows versions
on which the .NET 8 Hosting Bundle run.
- axesPAC runs on all Linux versions
on which the .NET 8 Hosting Bundle run.
However, this is not tested by axes4.
Please contact us if you want to
run axesPAC on Linux.
Software
- axesPAC On-Premise is provided as a ZIP file.
You can unpack the ZIP file and copy it to
a suitable location on your server.
