dwp / ms-html-to-pdfa

micro-service that takes an XHTML document and produces a pdf document at various conformance levels. The main driver for this is to create a 'generic' pdf-generator but also to create PDFA/1A compliant documents for DRS. It has recently been extended to support the PDF/UA standard for accessibility and uses an(other) in-house service which has abstracted the pdf 'build' activities (https://github.com/dwp/html-to-pdf)

Bump version of openhtmltopdf to at least 0.0.1-RC18 #1

Closed gunjam closed 5 years ago

gunjam commented 5 years ago

As of 0.0.1-RC18 openhtmltopdf has added accessibilty features such as titles, language and description meta data as well as tagged content. This brings it into compliance with the PDF/UA, Section 508 and WCAG 2 accessibility standards.

These added features would be greatly appreciated so we can produce accessible documents for our users via this service.

Thanks!

Thanks for raising this; you're absolutely right that we should be supporting PDF/UA. We will look into extending the api to support all (current) standards up to and including PDF/UA.

Many Thanks,

Chris

The PDF/UA functionality is now covered in v1.5.0 and extends the current set of document conformance levels to include the PDF/UA format for accessibility. The accessible-test.html test file (src/test/resources) was tested using Adobe Pro with the following outputs to confirm UA.

Thanks for raising this issue against the project 👍, I hope this release is useful.

Many Thanks,
