Accessibility: PDFs rendered with DOMPDF are missing Tags
Hi,
first of all thank you for all your hard work. I am a blind user of Bookstack which uses DOMPDF to export Pages to PDF. When doing so I discovered that the files I have exported are missing tags.
Why is that important?
Tags in PDF files allow asistive technologies such as Screenreaders to make out the structure of a document. e.g. headings and subheadings. If the tags are missing, it is very hard to keep an overview of the document while using assistive technologies.
What is happening?
- I create a Page in Bookstack including headings to provide a document structure.
- I export the Page as PDF
- The resulting PDF file is missing the heading structure
Fix:
Fixing this will allow even more people using DOMPDF and future-proofs it
If Headings, Alt-Text etc. are used in the source-file it should reflect in the PDF as well.
Thanks again for your hard work and have a nice day.
