Digital IFUs must satisfy WCAG 2.1 AA under EAA enforcement (active June 28, 2026). EPUB3 is the accessible IFU format — reflowable at any zoom, screen reader compatible, no horizontal scrolling at 400%.
IFU layout handling
Multi-column warning notices, symbol tables (ISO 15223-1), step-by-step instruction tables, and specification grids are linearised into correct reading order with full heading structure.
Multi-language batch conversion
A Class IIa device with 27 EU language versions produces 27 IFU PDFs per update. API conversion processes all language versions in under 20 minutes at $29/month.
Dual-format distribution
Keep the PDF for print packaging, notified body submission, and regulatory filing. Distribute EPUB3 digitally via QR code, device website, or patient portal. Both formats from one conversion workflow.
ACE by DAISY validation
EPUB3 output passes ACE by DAISY automated validation — producing WCAG 2.1 AA conformance reports for ISO 13485 QMS records and national market surveillance authority audits.
EAA enforcement is live
EAA enforcement began June 28, 2026. MDR/IVDR and EAA requirements converge for patient-facing digital IFUs. Device manufacturers distributing IFUs digitally to EU consumers are in scope now.
