Can you explain why PDF is not accessible for ADA purposes?
A PDF can consist of either text, or images, or a combination of the

Provided your PDF is text only, it is accessible. If it has any images,
or if it gets converted to images, it fails ADA requirements.
Screen readers don't show where, or how to fill in the blank spaces in a
fill-able PDF, and hence are not a11y.

Consider the difference between audio captioning, closed captioning and
open captioning.
