EPUB3 Accessible Production for Publishers & Educational Content
A11y Digital Tech specializes in EPUB3 accessible production for academic publishers, STM publishers, educational institutions, and trade publishers. We create fully compliant EPUB3 publications meeting EPUB Accessibility 1.1, WCAG 2.0/2.1/2.2, and Section 508 standards. Our EPUB production services include semantic HTML5 structure, accessible navigation, MathML for equations, proper reading order, alternative text for images, accessible tables, and full compatibility with screen readers and assistive reading technologies.
From manuscript to distribution-ready EPUB, we handle the complete production workflow. Our team converts InDesign files, Word documents, XML/JATS, and PDFs into accessible EPUB3 formats with reflowable or fixed-layout options. We ensure proper metadata inclusion, accessibility summary documentation, and validation using EPUBCheck and Ace by DAISY tools—delivering EPUBs that pass accessibility certification requirements for global distribution platforms.

Frequently asked questions
EPUB3 Accessibility refers to creating digital publications that meet EPUB Accessibility 1.1 and WCAG standards. This includes semantic HTML5 structure, proper heading hierarchy, accessible navigation, alternative text for images, MathML for equations, proper reading order, and screen reader compatibility—ensuring the content is usable by readers with visual, auditory, or cognitive disabilities.
Yes. We convert EPUB2, MOBI, PDF, InDesign files, Word documents, and XML/JATS into fully accessible EPUB3 formats. This includes restructuring content with proper semantic markup, adding accessibility features, implementing navigation improvements, and ensuring compliance with current accessibility standards.
Yes. We implement EPUB3 media overlays for synchronized text and audio (read-aloud), interactive elements, embedded audio/video with accessible controls, and enriched content features—all while maintaining accessibility compliance and screen reader compatibility.
We use automated validation tools (EPUBCheck, Ace by DAISY) combined with manual testing using screen readers (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver). Each EPUB includes accessibility metadata, conformance documentation, and detailed validation reports meeting EPUB Accessibility 1.1 and WCAG 2.0/2.1/2.2 requirements.
Yes. Every EPUB undergoes comprehensive testing with major screen readers (JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver) across multiple reading systems and devices. We test navigation, reading order, table accessibility, image descriptions, and interactive elements to ensure optimal user experience for readers using assistive technologies.
Yes. We specialize in EPUB production for academic and STM publishers. Our team implements accessible MathML for mathematical equations, properly structures chemical formulas, scientific notation, complex tables, figures with detailed descriptions, and technical diagrams—ensuring accessibility without compromising scientific accuracy.
