USERS & EDITORS - How to Audit PDFs for 508 at Scale (Workshop)

This talk focuses on performing a full content audit of a website's PDFs for 508 compliance in preparation for a migration to Drupal. The speaker shares valuable insights on the key differences between auditing accessibility for PDFs versus HTML, along with tools that can assist in auditing at scale. The session discusses when to utilize web scraping or web crawling and presents a roadmap for preparing non-compliant PDFs for migration. Additionally, it highlights practical steps to ensure PDFs are made accessible from the outset and explores participatory design practices that enable co-designing Drupal sites with users who have accessibility needs.
