Tagged PDFs, accessible Word, PowerPoint and Excel documents — PDF/UA compliant, screen reader friendly, ready for enterprise and government distribution.
01 / A better starting point
Most businesses lose customers every day to underperforming document accessibility. If any of these sound familiar, you are losing revenue right now:
02 / Built around your ambition
We tag PDFs with correct structure, headings, lists and tables, then validate against PDF/UA so screen readers can interpret each document accurately.
Word files are rebuilt with proper heading styles, table headers, alt text and language settings, and we supply accessible templates for future documents.
We fix slide titles, reading order, contrast and alt text in PowerPoint decks so presentations work when shared, downloaded or read with screen readers.
Spreadsheets get defined header rows, descriptive sheet names, chart descriptions and clear structure, so data in tables and dashboards is navigable.
We write concise, context-aware alt text for photos, charts and diagrams, describing what matters to the reader rather than applying generic labels.
We correct the tag and content order in complex layouts such as multi-column reports, so assistive technology reads text in its intended sequence.
PDF form fields receive labels, tooltips, logical tab order and error guidance, allowing people using assistive technology to complete forms independently.
For large archives, we set up batch workflows with per-document pricing, quality checks and progress reporting to clear backlogs without draining your team.
The Payoff
Headings, lists, tables and figures are tagged so screen readers can interpret them correctly.
PDF form fields get labels, tooltips and tab order so assistive technology users can complete them.
Charts and images receive alt text that conveys their purpose, and decorative items are marked as artefacts.
Large back catalogues of reports and brochures are remediated without tying up your internal team.
How we work / From idea to impact
We review your documents, group them by complexity and agree which to remediate, rebuild or retire.
Where the original Word or InDesign file exists, we correct styles and structure before exporting.
We apply and check tags, reading order, language settings, bookmarks and table headers in each PDF.
Form fields, alt text and link descriptions are added or corrected so every element is usable.
Documents are validated with PAC and Acrobat checks, then spot-tested with a screen reader.
We hand over accessible templates and a short guide so new documents are created correctly.

FAQ
Our team replies within one business day with a straight answer, not a sales pitch.
Contact usDocument accessibility services for PDF and Word are an often-overlooked component of overall accessibility compliance. Many organisations build accessible websites but distribute hundreds of inaccessible PDF reports, Word policies, PowerPoint decks and Excel dashboards. For government suppliers, education institutions, healthcare providers and enterprise vendors, document accessibility is increasingly required by procurement, regulation and law — Section 508 in the US, EU EAA in Europe, and various national accessibility standards globally. Devintek remediates documents to PDF/UA (ISO 14289) compliance for PDF, WCAG-aligned standards for Word, PowerPoint and Excel. Our process covers proper tagging structure (headings, lists, tables, figures), reading order remediation so screen readers traverse the document logically, alt text for embedded images and charts, accessible form field tagging in PDF forms, table structure with proper header associations, and language and metadata tagging. We work both on individual high-priority documents (annual reports, policy documents, key marketing brochures) and on volume remediation programmes (education content libraries, policy archives, regulatory document sets). For organisations with ongoing document production, we run half-day team training workshops on accessible authoring in Word, PowerPoint and Excel, plus provide branded accessible templates and quick-reference guides so future documents start accessible rather than needing post-production remediation. Every document we deliver passes automated accessibility validation (Adobe Acrobat checker, PAC 2024, axe), manual screen reader testing (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver), and includes documented compliance evidence for distribution and audit purposes.
