Sample accessibility grade: D
The brochure is tagged and visually polished, but machine validation still found structural failures that change how lists, tables, headings, and links are announced.
PDF Hound self-audit
Tags were present. The reading experience still needed repair.
This polished ten-page brochure already had selectable text, language, bookmarks, and image descriptions. PDF Hound rebuilt its reading structure. An automated PDF/UA structural check reported no issue, while the guided review retains one real table-readout issue.
This is an automated and AI-assisted accessibility-improvement demonstration—not a conformance decision, human-specialist review, or guarantee that the file works in every viewer or assistive technology.

- Link descriptions, tag associations, and PDF/UA metadata
Findings recorded by this audit
Serious Lists and table cells are outside valid semantic containers
Thirty list items and twenty table header or data cells are not connected to the list and row structures assistive technology expects.
Serious Heading levels skip on page 9
The security-card headings are announced before the expected parent heading level, weakening page navigation.
Moderate 41 visible links lack accessible annotation descriptions
The links work visually, but their annotations and tags are not connected correctly for assistive technology.
Moderate Required PDF/UA identification metadata is missing
The brochure has a valid title, but it lacks the XMP metadata needed to identify the file as PDF/UA.
What the guided review checks
- Page 3 table header and data-row announcement
- All ten pages were included in deterministic checks; the table readout remains unresolved
- The semantic comparison found no detected text gap in its checked scope; it does not replace user testing
What remains after automated remediation
The page 3 table is structurally tagged, but its announced table contains only the header row and omits the data rows. PDF Hound keeps that specific issue in review instead of presenting a false all-clear. No automated or AI-assisted review can establish that a file works for every person, viewer, or assistive technology.
