Access for All – Swiss foundation for accessible technologies - Freeware: PDF Accessibility Checker (PAC) PDF-Accessibility-Checker (PAC 2) The freeware program PAC provides a fast way to test the accessibility of PDF files.

PAC supports both experts as well as end users conducting accessibility evaluations. The Matterhorn Protocol (PDF) is designed to foster adoption of PDF/UA by providing a set of 31 Checkpoints and 136 Failure Conditions that help software developers exchange detailed information on PDF/UA conformance and create software to make it easier for document authors to create fully accessible PDF files and forms. PAC 2, the new PDF Accessibility Checker from Access for All, a Swiss non-profit organisation, is the first implementation of the Matterhorn Protocol. PAC ist recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C): PDF Techniques for WCAG 2.0 Donate now! Overview evaluation tools in PAC 2 Technical check (1) Click «Start» for automated error checking.

If an HTTP request does not result in a valid HTTP response (because of network-level error, DNS resolution error, or non-HTTP response), FAIL If the HTTP status indicates redirection (status code 3xx): Do not carry out tests on the response If the response relates to a request for the resource under test, or any of its Included Resources (see 2.4.7 Included Resources): Include the size of the response in the "total size" as described under 3.16 PAGE_SIZE_LIMIT Include this response under the count as described under 3.6 EXTERNAL_RESOURCES If there is no HTTP Location header, FAIL.

If the URI identified by the HTTP Location header is a relative URI, create an absolute URI by combining the value of the Location header with the absolute URI of the request to which this is a response, warn If the resulting URI is not a URI with the scheme http or https, FAIL. Re-request the resource using the URI formulated above. If the HTTP status indicates that authentication is required (e.g. status code 401): Checklist of Checkpoints for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0.
