Make E-Books Accessible with NAGIX – The AI-Driven PDF-UA Solution

In today’s digital age, accessibility is no longer optional—it’s essential. Publishers face increasing pressure to ensure their e-books meet global accessibility standards, opening the world of reading to everyone, including those who rely on assistive technologies. NAGIX, Consist’s innovative PDF-UA solution, is here to revolutionize this process. Powered by advanced AI, NAGIX transforms even the most complex e-books—like richly illustrated children’s books—into fully accessible formats with unparalleled ease.

Why Accessibility Matters

Accessible e-books empower millions of readers with visual, cognitive, or physical disabilities to engage with content. Assistive devices, such as screen readers, rely on properly tagged PDFs to interpret text, describe images, and navigate documents. Without proper accessibility, these readers are excluded from the joys of digital content. NAGIX eliminates the barriers by converting standard e-books into universally accessible e-books that comply with the PDF/UA (Universal Accessibility) standard.

The NAGIX Advantage

NAGIX sets itself apart by using cutting-edge artificial intelligence to simplify the often-complicated process of accessibility compliance. Traditional methods for tagging and converting e-books can be tedious, error-prone, and time-consuming—especially when dealing with intricate illustrations and layouts. NAGIX changes the game, making it easier than ever for publishers to create accessible e-books without sacrificing quality or creative vision.

Key Features of NAGIX:

  1. AI-Powered Image Recognition
    NAGIX’s AI scans and interprets even the most complex illustrations and images, automatically generating accurate descriptive tags. For example, a whimsical drawing in a children’s book of a bear riding a bicycle can be tagged with rich, detailed descriptions like “A brown bear wearing a blue hat rides a red bicycle through a green park.” These descriptions ensure that readers using assistive devices gain a vivid understanding of the imagery.
  2. Streamlined Text-to-Speech Integration
    With precise tagging, NAGIX ensures that text and images flow seamlessly into text-to-speech software. This creates an engaging reading experience for individuals relying on screen readers, narrating not just the text but also delivering context for images, charts, and other visual elements.
  3. Complex Layout Handling
    Children’s books often feature intricate layouts with overlapping text, images, and decorative elements. NAGIX uses advanced algorithms to interpret these layouts and reorganize them in a way that remains true to the book’s creative design while adhering to accessibility standards.
  4. Efficient Workflow
    NAGIX eliminates the need for manual tagging and streamlines the entire accessibility process. Its intuitive dashboard provides publishers with real-time insights into compliance status, allowing them to quickly make adjustments and achieve 100% PDF/UA compliance.
  5. Comprehensive Reporting
    Publishers receive detailed accessibility reports, ensuring full transparency and compliance with accessibility regulations like WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines).

Transforming Children’s Books into Accessible Masterpieces

Children’s books often pose unique challenges in accessibility due to their heavy reliance on illustrations, colorful layouts, and interactive features. NAGIX bridges this gap by utilizing advance OCR and AI capabilities which enable publishers to transform these visual stories into accessible formats that preserve their magic. Whether it’s describing the vibrant colors of a rainbow or the action-packed adventures of a cartoon character, NAGIX ensures that every element is accessible to readers of all abilities.

By embracing NAGIX, publishers not only meet compliance requirements but also expand their audience base. Accessible e-books open the door to millions of potential readers, including students, educators, and library systems that prioritize inclusivity. With NAGIX, your content becomes truly universal.
