In this new release of March 2021, we have greatly enhanced PREP’s capabilities in simplifying complex document remediation. This includes time-consuming aspects of document remediation such as making scanned PDFs accessible, tagging complex tables, table of contents (ToCs), lists, or nested lists, and adding alternative text for images. PREP can now handle these in just a few clicks – easily, and efficiently.
Another innovative feature that has been built into PREP (PDF Remediation Platform) is inter-format conversion support. In addition to offering flexibility to the user, this feature enables faster and easier document remediation and validation.
PREP generates Web Accessibility, PDF/UA compliant documents in multiple formats through a single Cloud-based interface.
PREP now supports inter-format conversion:
| Import | Export |
|---|---|
| PowerPoint (Pptx) | Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) |
| Word Document (Docx) | Word Document (Docx) |
| PDF (Portable Format Document) | PDF (Portable Format Document) |
PREP: Behind the Scenes
PREP allows users to easily import Powerpoint (PPTX), Word Document (Docx), or PDF documents. The tool’s sophisticated artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled technology performs a preliminary tag detection and labels the content with auto-generated hierarchy-based tag structure. Thus, establishing a logical sequence, making it easy for screen reader users, or those using assistive technology devices to more easily navigate through the documents.
PREP allows users to assign tags, annotate, provide alternative text (alt text) for images, and make any corrections as required. As a part of the workflow, users can check for compliance against Section 508, WCAG 2.0, PDF U/A, & ADA with PREP’s built-in accessibility checker.
