Test info

This test is based on the WCAG 2.0 Technique PDF18: Specifying the document title using the Title entry in the document information dictionary of a PDF document

Failure cause

No document title found for the PDF document

The document does not contain a document title or the document title is empty.

Why this may be a barrier

A document title is helpful to quickly communicate the purpose or topic of the document. When a title is not available or does not match the content, the reader may need to invest more time to determine the topic of the document and to decide whether the document contains relevant information.
