We take ownership of accessibility across the publishing workflow, ensuring that content is compliant, consistent, and ready for global distribution.
Most publishers believe their content is accessible. In reality, a large percentage of EPUBs and PDFs fail basic accessibility checks, from incorrect tagging and reading order to missing alt-text and poor semantic structure.
These issues are often only identified when content is audited, rejected by distribution platforms, or flagged during compliance reviews. With regulations such as the European Accessibility Act now in effect, accessibility directly impacts distribution, institutional adoption, and market access.
At Cameo, we don't approach accessibility as a final-stage fix. We build it into the production workflow from the start.
We work with publishers to meet the accessibility standards that matter for their content and markets.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines at the highest conformance level, ensuring perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust digital content for all users.
ISO 14289 standard for universally accessible PDFs with proper tagging, reading order, and assistive technology support.
EPUB 3 accessibility specifications including semantic structure, navigation, and media overlays for inclusive reading experiences.
Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 508 compliance for content used in educational, government, and institutional settings.
Our approach ensures accessibility is part of the workflow, not an afterthought bolted on at the end.
Comprehensive audits of existing EPUBs, PDFs, and HTML content against WCAG, PDF/UA, and EPUB accessibility standards. Detailed reports with prioritized remediation steps.
Fixing non-compliant documents at scale. Correcting tagging structures, reading order, alt-text, semantic markup, and navigation to bring content into full compliance.
Building accessibility into the production pipeline from the start. Structured XML, proper semantic tagging, and compliance validation at every stage of production.
Writing meaningful alternative text for images, figures, charts, and equations. Ensuring visual content is accurately described for screen readers and assistive devices.
PDF/UA compliance including proper tag structures, reading order, bookmarks, and metadata. Ensuring PDFs work seamlessly with assistive technologies.
EPUB 3 accessibility features including semantic navigation, media overlays, ARIA roles, and compatibility testing across reading systems and devices.
Whether you need an audit of existing content or want to build accessibility into your production workflow, we can help.
