Why axesSlide?

PowerPoint presentations have become an integral part of everyday work and university life; millions of PowerPoint presentations are created every day. So there are countless creators of presentations and at least as many people who hear and see these presentations. axesSlide easily creates an accessible PDF document from your PowerPoint presentation ‒ with just a few clicks.

Create accessibility completely in PowerPoint

Create all accessibility properties in Microsoft PowerPoint and combine with axesSlide to create a PDF/UA- and WCAG-compliant PDF completely automatically. Reworking and time-consuming quality assurance are no longer necessary.

Apply the PowerPoint functions

You can easily create the accessibility properties using the PowerPoint functions. axesSlide automatically generates the accessibility properties in the PDF. This applies, for example, to:

  • Reading order
  • Presentation title (H1) and slide title (H2)
  • Numbered and bulleted lists (also nested)
  • Images, graphics, charts, SmartArt (including bounding boxes)
  • Grouping
  • Tables
  • Decorative elements
  • Language labels
  • Links including alternative descriptions
Two screens. One screen shows a PowerPoint presentation with "Accessible PDFs from PowerPoint" with the axesSlide logo. The other screen shows the same slide with the addition "PDF/UA"

What axesSlide does

Our motto "Hide complexity" also applies to axesSlide: the magic happens in the background during the creation of the accessible PDF document.

Carries out its own structural analysis

PowerPoint does not provide enough information about the structure of your presentation. axesSlide analyses to capture as much structural information as possible.
