Here you can download PAC free of charge and without registration. In addition, we can keep you up to date with updates or new resources on checking for PDF accessibility.

In some cases, an anti-virus program on your computer may block the above download. PAC is 100% virus-free and safe; it is only blocked because the ZIP file contains an executable file (*.exe) and some antivirus programs consider this to be a danger.

In this case, you can download a ZIP file "encrypted" with the password 1234 here:
