With the coming into force in Germany of the Accessibility Improvement Act (BFSG) on June 28, 2025, banks and financial service providers are faced with the challenge of making their digital documents accessible. In particular, PDF documents sent to customers online or by email must comply with the new legal requirements.
The international PDF/UA standard, which ensures that PDF documents are accessible to people with disabilities, is relevant to accessible document design.
