Many older PDFs or Word forms/documents do not meet accessibility standards, for example, they may not be structured so they’re accessible to a screen reader, and these do not meet the WCAG 2.1 success criterion 4.1.2.  

The accessibility regulations do not require us to fix PDFs or other documents published before 23 September 2018 if they are none essential documents any essential documents will be up rated to meet the standards.
