The ADA (American Disability Act) and section 508 strive to make life more comfortable for people with disabilities, stating that any places of public accommodations should be accessible to individuals with any kind of disabilities. The public places include jobs, schools, transportation, and websites. Failing to comply with these laws may incur a fine for both federal and state-funded institutions, and private businesses. PDF as a dominant file format on the web also falls under these laws and should be made accessible to comply.
