Web Accessibility Tools
Here's a list of free tools that you can use to check your website for accessibility:
Adobe Acrobat Create and Verify PDF Accessibility
You can use Acrobat to make PDFs meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.
Adobe offers this resource for converting PDF files into either HTML or plain text. The PDF file must be online and a URL given to the converter to process. Note that only text is converted: graphics and other non-text elements are simply dropped.
Colbis allows designers to predict image legibility for color deficient viewers by accurately simulating color blindness. Given that up to 10% of the male population is affected by some sort of color blindness, webpage designers should use a tool such as this to preview their pages to make sure important information is not lost.
The Cynthia Says portal is a web content accessibility validation solution. It is designed to identify errors in your content related to Section 508 standards and/or the WCAG guidelines. This free tool, meant for educational purposes, is an online test that only validates one page at a time.
WAVE is a free web accessibility evaluation tool provided by WebAIM. It is used to aid in the web accessibility evaluation process. Rather than providing a complex technical report, WAVE shows the original webpage with embedded icons and indicators that reveal the accessibility information within your page.
