Accessible Statements
Xenos Axess™ is a PDF accessibility software solution that enables enterprises to produce high-volume PDF documents that are accessible, via assistive technology, and usable by visually impaired customers. It integrates with an organization’s existing enterprise content management (ECM) infrastructure to capture high-volume print streams and automatically transform them into accessible PDFs. Organizations such as financial institutions can use Xenos Axess to transform transactional print documents such as monthly banking, credit card or investment statements to meet the needs of visually impaired customers.

When it comes to banking and related activities, visually impaired individuals have to request special statements from their financial institutions. To better serve these customers, providers often choose to outsource to a secure alternate format documentation processor. This process typically involves working with:
- Companies such as T-Base Communications, an organization that offers outsourced secure and private statement processing services to meet low to medium-volume requirements.
- Accessible formats for visually impaired customers, including Braille, Large Print, audio descriptions and e-text.
Xenos Axess is the only server-based solution on the market that can capture print streams and automate PDF tagging for accessibility. To date, the only other options available to organizations are audio CDs, or Braille, Large Print or manually-tagged documents. With this solution, financial institutions can ensure that any statement or transaction-oriented document it generates can be accessible on demand to every customer. Xenos Axess is enabled through features available in Xenos Enterprise Server™.
Xenos has architected its PDF accessibility software solution for seamless integration with an organization’s existing infrastructure to address a comprehensive range of transformation, storage, retrieval and output demands. Customers who are already producing high-volume PDF documents can now ensure that their documents are also accessible, providing assistive technology and offering usability for all customers. With Xenos Axess, organizations can adhere to standards such as WCAG 2.0 and comply with legislation such as ADA and Section 508.
