Description

A website isn't a filing cabinet, but somehow yours has become a PDF repository. No one sets out to build a digital monument to the PDF. How did this happen? And what are you going to do about it?

We all know that HTML text is best for website content. But PDFs are easy to create and upload, and many internal workflows are reliant on them. Addressing this dilemma might seem overwhelming, but it’s not impossible. Understand what makes PDFs an accessibility barrier to your audience. Learn how to audit your PDFs, with criteria and templates you can use to help track and prioritize conversion. Recognize what kinds of PDFs are easiest to make into HTML content. Spot the workflows and processes that keep your organization locked in the PDF cycle, and discover ways to improve them. With a little planning and some elbow grease, you can solve your PDF problems.
