Hi Matthias, I’m afraid we are all new to what boils down to the EU Accessibility Directive (and national transposition legal norms). > and I don’t know (yet) what defines screen readability and how this > might be certified. I will investigate. I guess that screen readability could be to be read aloud by a screen reader software. BTW, taking samples from four European official journals: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=OJ:L_202500684 passes only PDF/A-2A validation. https://www.recht.bund.de/bgbl/1/2025/104/regelungstext.pdf?__blob=publicationFile&v=3 fails both PDF/A-2A and PDF/UA-1 validations. https://boe.es/boe/dias/2025/04/04/pdfs/BOE-A-2025-6796.pdf passes only PDF/A-1A validation. https://www.officielebekendmakingen.nl/stb-2025-88.pdf passes only PDF/A-1A validation. From my limited samples, only Germany seems to have thought of having accessible PDF documents in practice. > So far, I have only tried Acrobat on a Mac to see whether I can add > alternate texts in ConTexT that would be recognized by Acrobat. > Acrobat says that the document has the accessibility flag checked, > but that the image is not tagged. Letting it read the document skips > the image. Could you test Acrobat to read alould the PDF document form the »Bundesgesetztblatt« above? The image has an alternative text, but the tagging is not properly mapped. Let us know what you find out with Acrobat reading aloud, Pablo ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
