RE: Accessibility for pdf

Yes you do. The WCAG success criteria have been written in a technology-agnostic way that means they can be applied to PDFs and other document types as well as HTML pages. Of course you will have to work out how to do the tests on PDFs because some of the techniques will not be the same as for HTML pages.

Subject: Accessibility for pdf

Hello,
I am checking a website for it's level A accessibility issues. I was wondering if any body knows whether I need to check the pdf files for accessibility as well.
Thanks,
Mehrnaz
