are going to run the
accessibility checker on a PDF that was first ran through the
make accessible action was. So to begin, I'm going to select
the accessibility. And then I'm going to select accessibility
check. This gives me a set of options that I can choose from,
I'm going to make sure that 32 of 32 of my options in all
categories are selected, and that I've chosen all pages in
document, then I'm going to select start checking. To review
the results, we need to first press the accessibility checker
icon on the far left. This will give me a list of all of the
things that were found wrong in this document. Now, there's a
couple things to know. The Accessibility Checker does not
guarantee full compliance. This is a great tool to run after you
have verified the tag structure manually. But we can't begin to
fix some of these items. So the logical reading whatever is the
first issue that we have here that says needs manual checks.
In order to fix this, we need to go to the tags panel and walk
the tags tree to ensure all of the content is in the correct
order. Once we've done that, we can right click and select pass.
Next, we have bookmarks failed. To fix this, we're simply going
to right click there and select fix. This is going to prompt us
to add certain elements to our bookmarks panel. From now we're
just going to add this h1 and h3 It appears we need to actually
ensure we have an h2 as well. We can verify the bookmarks by
selecting the Bookmark button at the top. And here are our two
books. We're gonna need a little more than that though. Tagged to
annotations has failed, we have a couple of links that have
failed. In order to fix these, we must go to the tags panel.
Select the Options button, select Find and Select unmarked
annotations. Let's go ahead and search the document. Then I can
select Find tag element as the link tag element. Perfect. Now
we'll go back to the accessibility checker results.
And we can right click and say check again. And now our
annotations are PACs. Next up, we have figures that need
alternate text. Now I have a lot of these. So for this video,
let's just get to fix them. So I'm going to right click the air
and select fix. This is going to prompt me to go through every
one of the images in my document. And for this example,
I'm just going to give dummy text. And I am pressing the next
button, pasting my alt tag. Again, my alt text should really
be more concise and clear up for demo purposes. I am putting just
dummy texts in these fields. And we're almost done. And then our
last issue is a nesting element. This says basically that our
heading is out of order. So I'm going to right click this option
and say show in tags. And that's going to take me to my h3. Now
this is where things can get a little complicated, we need to
fix some of the content in our tags panel to make sure this
document is accessible. I'm going to begin doing that. I'm
going to change this part tag to document and it looks like our
order is out of order a bit. Our link object references from
earlier were placed in the wrong spot. So the first thing I want
to be viewed is my h1 and I have a paragraph tag. And then I have
a table of contents. This could be my h2. I'm simply changing
the tag type by pressing f2 on my keyboard and typing the
appropriate tag. You can also right click the Tag, select
properties and change the heading level from the drop down
menu. My table of contents has been built which is great. Let's
find our link object reference. This is what makes a PDF
accessible. We need to go place that in its home just going to paste that right
there. Let's go find our other link object reference. Now, what
I actually should do is apply these links throughout. For this
demonstration, I'm not going to fix this entire table of
contents, but I just want to give you a snapshot as to how it
should be. Alright, next we have overview of PDF accessibility.
This is also an h2. Now, I don't love section tags. So I'm going
to move this content out of my section. I'm going to do that by
selecting all of the tags. Okay, now that I got that section tag
removed, I can continue walking the tags. So I have an overview
of PDF accessibility. And then I have a laws tax that should be
an h3. We have our paragraph tags in the h3. And then really,
we will need to go through the rest of this document and ensure
that our tag structure is intact. That would include
fixing these lists items and applying the rest of our
headings. But you just learned how to run the accessibility
checker on a PDF and fix some of the content within the
accessibility checker. Thank you for watching
