As public sector entities across North America continue to embrace digital transformation, the persistent use of outdated PDF forms is increasingly becoming a barrier to both operational efficiency and citizen accessibility. These static, legacy forms limit engagement and create significant challenges for individuals relying on assistive technologies. For government agencies, addressing these barriers is key to ensuring that services are accessible, efficient, and meet modern standards.
