The PDF Auditor engine
Understand. Structure. Tag.
Each PDF moves through the same evidence-based approach as A11yRoo PDF Auditor.
Example batch: Community guide, Service application.
Audit the document
Examine content, page layout, reading order, and existing structure.
Suggest a tag tree
Use the evidence and context to choose meaningful headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, and figures.
Create the tagged copy
Apply the structure and bring uncertain decisions forward for a person to review.
Human review
Make the final call.
Review a tagging decision in this example. Confirm the meaning, then finalize the sample.
Getting started
The short, prominent text introduces the content below it. The suggested structure treats it as a section heading.
Choose how this text should be represented.
A best-supported guess.
A person’s final judgment.
Layout, content, and context offer clues about what a PDF means. SiteScan uses the Auditor’s logic to make educated tagging decisions, even when the structure is ambiguous.
Questionable content needs to be easy to find. A general content group can keep it represented when a more specific role is uncertain, so you can inspect it and decide.
Tagged is ready for review.
Reviewed is ready to finalize.
Work at a manageable pace

Discovery gives you the wider picture. Batches keep auditing, tagging, and human review within reach.
Before you start
A few useful answers.
Curious. Persistent.
Always investigating.
What does SiteScan look for?
SiteScan follows internal website links within the scan’s boundaries to discover PDFs. Its focus is the PDF collection and those documents’ accessibility.
Does every PDF have to be processed at once?
No. Work in manageable batches. A batch of ten is one example; the amount should fit your processing and review capacity.
How does SiteScan tag a PDF?
It uses A11yRoo PDF Auditor logic to audit the document, suggest its tag tree, and create a tagged copy using layout, content, and contextual evidence.
When is a document finalized?
After human review. Automated tagging helps improve structure, but it does not establish complete accessibility or replace checks that require human judgment.
Where do the other A11yRoo tools fit?
PDF Auditor handles individual PDFs through auditing and tagging. PDF Editor helps make focused changes to an already-tagged PDF.
