Accessible EPUB Conversion
With a background in academic publishing, we help publishers make new titles born-accessible and bring backlists up to standard — a legal requirement in the EU under the European Accessibility Act.
- EPUB Accessibility 1.1
- WCAG 2.2 AA
- EAA (EU 2019/882)
- Benetech partner
Certification and conversion
We are a Benetech Global Certified Accessible (GCA) International Partner and can support you through your EPUB certification. Whether you're converting from InDesign, PDF or existing EPUB files, we produce accessible EPUBs that work with screen readers, refreshable braille displays and read-aloud tools.
The most cost-effective approach is an intentional workflow: make accessibility a priority from the point a title is commissioned, through design and development, to testing against the standards. We help publishers build exactly that workflow — and then tackle the backlist strategically.
Alt text by subject-matter experts
Alternative text is where accessible publishing most often falls short. Our expert writers and editors — with experience across many industries and disciplines — write alt text for images, icons, illustrations and graphics that preserves the meaning of every image for every reader.
