Happy Global Accessibility Awareness Day! Try this today: unplug your mouse and navigate the internet with only your keyboard. It sounds simple until it isn’t. That’s the point of GAAD. It reminds us that digital content should work for multiple ways of moving through the web.

A website can look great and still shut people out. That’s why Global Accessibility Awareness Day matters. People access digital content in different ways, and design choices can either open the door or create barriers. hubs.ly/Q04gKdtW0

WCAG helps helps: - people with disabilities. - people reading a phone in bright sunlight. - someone trying to watch a video in a noisy room. Good accessibility becomes a better experience for everyone. Learn more in our blog post, Why I Love WCAG (And You Should Too!).

Some websites just feel easier to use. You don’t have to fight the layout. The text is readable. The navigation makes sense. A lot of that comes back to WCAG standards and accessibility decisions, whether people realize it or not. hubs.ly/Q04gHdVl0

What's the difference between Section 508 and WCAG? Section 508 is the requirement. WCAG is the roadmap. That’s the simplest way to explain the relationship between the two. Learn more in our blog post, 508 and WCAG: What’s the Difference?

Section 508 doesn’t just apply to websites. It also covers digital documents, software, & other electronic communication used by federal agencies & organizations receiving federal funding. Accessibility touches more places than most people realize. bit.ly/4ueMryQ

Screen readers don’t interpret documents the same way people do. They rely on structure, reading order, tags, and navigation behind the scenes. Accessible PDFs are built so both humans and technology understand content clearly. Learn more in our post, What is an accessible PDF?

Every PDF has layers. One layer is what we see. Another is what assistive technology reads. If those layers don’t match, people can miss information or struggle to navigate the document. That’s what accessible PDF remediation is really about. bit.ly/4d5IqXa

Section 508 is not just a federal requirement. It affects agencies, contractors, vendors, and more. These organizations must make their digital communications, such as websites, apps, and PDFs, accessible. Learn more in our blog post, Who Needs to be Compliant?

Tomorrow is 5/08, which means Section 508 Day 🎉 Section 508 requires federal agencies and those working with them to make digital content accessible to everyone. It matters because everyone should have access to information without barriers. bit.ly/3OJ0j4V

Happy Teacher Appreciation Day to the TVIs who show up every day and do work most people never see. You’re teaching braille, supporting classrooms, and helping students keep up. We’re grateful for you and encourage more people to consider this path. bit.ly/4uruz3o

Large print isn’t just making the font bigger. It’s choosing the right font, spacing things out, and keeping the design clean so it’s actually readable. That’s what makes it work. Learn more in our blog post, Who Benefits from Large Print Documents? You Might be Surprised.

Simple documents cost less to make accessible. Large tables, detailed forms, and image-heavy files require more work to get right. That’s where the cost starts to increase. Check out our blog post "How much does braille cost?" to learn more.

“How much does it cost?” isn’t a simple question. A short, clean file costs less than a complex document full of tables, forms, and images. Paying a flat page rate means you're either overpaying for accessibility, or the file isn't actually accessible. hubs.ly/Q04dy57y0

Not all braille is created equal. Braille documents must be available and held to the same high-quality standards as their original text counterparts. Learn more in our blog post, Quality Braille Matters.
