PDF remediation starts with understanding what makes a PDF accessible. Before you can fix tags, reading order, or structure, you need to know what those terms mean, where to find them in Acrobat, and how to recognize when a PDF needs remediation.
Join Capri Norrman for a step-by-step introduction to PDF remediation workflows in Adobe Acrobat. Learn how to evaluate a document, identify common accessibility issues, and work through fixes in a logical order. Along the way, you’ll explore common remediation tasks like repairing tags, correcting reading order, fixing document structure, and using Acrobat’s built-in accessibility and Preflight tools.
You’ll leave with a stronger foundation for using Acrobat’s accessibility tools and a clearer sense of how to begin the remediation process without getting lost.
You will learn how to:
• Understand what PDF remediation means
• Recognize the role of tags in accessible PDFs
• Find and navigate the tags tree in Adobe Acrobat
• Identify PDFs with missing or incomplete tags
• Begin basic remediation with a clear starting workflow
