MorfDocs is an all-in-one platform that helps educators and content providers by converting inaccessible documents into accessible formats tailored for blind and low vision students.
Frequently Asked Questions
MorfDocs works with a wide range of digital documents across education, government, enterprise, and research, including:
- Learning and training materials (worksheets, assignments, assessments, manuals)
- Reports, forms, policies, and public-facing documents
- Documents containing math, formulas, equations, and scientific notation
- Technical and analytical content with tables, measurements, charts, and graphs
- Structured PDFs with headings, sections, and mixed text-and-visual layouts
MorfDocs is built for real-world documents—helping teams turn everyday content into accessible formats quickly and at scale.
MorfDocs is less accurate with documents that include:
- Unusual or highly complex layouts (e.g., dense multi-column designs with overlapping content)
- Handwritten notes or annotations
- Hand-drawn figures or sketches
- Scanned documents with very low resolution or heavy noise
These limitations are primarily due to current AI constraints. If you work with complex, specialized, or highly non-standard document types, we encourage you to share samples with us so we can review them and advise on expected accessibility quality.

MorfDocs makes visual content in your documents more accessible by:
- Generating image descriptions for most graphics, such as photos, diagrams, charts, and illustrations. These descriptions help VI and low-vision users understand visual information through screen readers and other assistive technologies.
- Supporting different levels of detail, so descriptions can be concise (for simple images) or more detailed (for complex visuals like diagrams, charts, or process flows).
- Producing accessible scalable vector graphics (SVGs) for many diagram- and data-rich visuals, such as charts, schematics, and structured figures. These SVGs can be used with tactile graphic embossers, digital magnifiers, and other accessibility tools.
If your documents contain complex, domain-specific, or highly technical graphics, we encourage you to reach out. We’re happy to review samples and explore customized accessibility solutions for your use case.
MorfDocs is built for individuals and organizations that need accessible documents, including:
- People who are blind or have low vision seeking accessible formats
- Educators, trainers, and instructional teams creating inclusive materials
- Government agencies and public institutions meeting accessibility requirements
- Businesses and organizations producing accessible reports, forms, and content
- Parents and caregivers supporting learners with visual impairments
MorfDocs supports both individual use and organization-wide accessibility workflows.

DOCX (.docx): Best if you or your users:
- Want to edit, customize, or reformat content (e.g., lesson plans, training materials, reports)
- Need to add comments, track changes, or collaborate in Word or similar tools
- Plan to re-purpose content into other formats later
PDF (.pdf): Best if you or your users:
