    Are the PDFs available to be read by screen readers?
    Are any links in the PDFs accessible by tabbing through the page?

    Assuming that the PDF had been created in Adobe Acrobat to be accessible of course.

  • Hi @justanothernerd,

    The embedded viewer can be navigated using a mouse or by keyboard presses (https://wp-pdf.com/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-for-full-screen-mode/). The embedded document can also be read by some screen readers—other users have used the plugin successfully with JAWS.

    My best suggestion for ensuring the plugin can also allow PDFs to be read through a screen reader would be to also embed a direct link to the PDF, beneath the PDF Embedder view of the file, so that screen readers can jump straight to the PDF itself instead of accessing the file via the viewer. This method would negate the ability to secure the PDF.

    We are working on additionals features to make the embedded documents more accessible.
