Equidox PDF remediation
software now supports fillable PDF forms
our proprietary software has simplified forms remediation Equidox automatically
builds the digital tags for fillable PDF forms
and any existing tags are preserved upon import
Equidox allows you to easily tag headings in your document using keyboard
shortcuts [Music]
you can quickly add alt text for images [Music]
then you can quickly add your tooltips for each form field
because of the shortcut keys used with screen readers and connected braille
displays assistive technology users can only fill
out PDF forms using edit mode doesn't read the tag
field descriptions of the document only the digital tags for tooltips so be
very clear when you're creating your tooltips
include instructions about what the user should fill in the field
and any formatting they need to know for example
check boxes should explain the choices
you can copy and paste and edit repetitive language
tool tips for drop down fields should clearly summarize the options in the
list
radio buttons should also explain the choices
[Music] remember only the tooltips are read to
assistive technology users in edit mode so you need to fully explain what's
needed for each field and any formatting requirements
[Music]
date fields should specify the format in which the date must be entered
once your tool tips are entered you can correct the reading order
for most documents our reorder button does the job quickly and easily
[Music] reading order for forms can become quite
complex but Equidox's decimal system for reading
order makes correcting this fast and
easy [Music]
an html preview shows the fields in the
correct order with the descriptions preceding the form
fields
[Music]
our fixed form preview shows the tooltips associated with each field
[Music]
after exporting your remediated fillable PDF form
validating your form using an accessibility checker will pass
all but the necessary manual checks [Music]
