If you need to ensure your PDF documents and forms are accessible and comply with Section 508 there's no faster or more certain solution than CommonLook® PDF, a plugin for Adobe Acrobat®.
The only PDF accessibility tool besides Adobe's Acrobat to be recognized in the W3C's PDF Techniques for WCAG 2.0, CommonLook PDF is far faster and more efficient than using Adobe Acrobat alone to remediate PDF files for accessibility.
Beyond efficiency enhancements, CommonLook PDF includes comprehensive low-level accessibility auditing, capturing manual and automatic validation in the definitive CommonLook Report.
Benefits
"CommonLook is very simple and easy to use and it greatly reduces the amount of time it takes to convert PDF documents to meet 508 compliance standards.
More importantly, there is peace of mind knowing that the converted PDF document is 508 compliant."
