What Happens Automatically
Every publication gets these accessibility features out of the box — no configuration needed.
Text Extraction
MuPDF extracts all text from every PDF page and renders it as a transparent overlay for screen readers, search, and selection.
Paragraph Detection
Analyzes vertical gaps, font sizes, and font faces to find natural section breaks for TTS pauses.
Word-Level Mapping
Every word gets precise coordinates. Enables TTS word highlighting, click-to-seek, and accurate search.
Keyboard Navigation
15+ shortcuts built in. Focus trapping in dialogs. Skip links. Visible teal focus indicators on every element.
Screen Reader Support
ARIA live regions announce page changes. Semantic landmarks structure the UI. All controls have descriptive labels.
Reduced Motion
Auto-detects your OS preference. Disables page flip animations and defaults to scroll mode.
Enhance Accessibility Further
Optional tools that give publishers control over how content is presented to assistive technologies.
Paragraph-Aware Text-to-Speech
Reads each paragraph as a separate utterance with natural 400ms pauses. Word-level highlighting tracks the spoken position in real time. Speed adjustable from 0.5x to 2x. Auto-advances between pages.
ImmersiveReader with Dyslexia Support
Full-screen reading environment with OpenDyslexic font, adjustable letter/word/line spacing, 4 color themes (Light, Dark, Sepia, Green), and a line focus mode that highlights one sentence at a time.
AI Vision Processing
Generates descriptions for photographs, charts, and diagrams using computer vision. Three modes: Off, Smart (visual-heavy pages only), and All Pages. Publishers choose the TTS source: native PDF text or AI-enhanced descriptions.
Editable Page Descriptions
Per-page text field in the editor. Auto-populated from extracted text. AI Vision suggestions available with a one-click “Use this” button. Screen readers announce these when navigating pages.
AI Chat with Source Navigation
Readers ask questions about the publication. AI answers with clickable page citations that navigate directly to the source. Keyboard accessible and screen reader compatible.
