 Verifying
 ---------
 
-To see whether a PDF really carries structure, open the tag tree in a
-PDF reader that shows one, or check for the tags directly:
+Check a built PDF against the standard with veraPDF:
+
+  verapdf -f ua2 text.pdf
+
+It prints PASS or FAIL for the file, and --format text will list the
+clauses that failed. All four of the tagged templates pass as shipped,
+so a FAIL means something in the document needs attention rather than
+something in the template.
+
+Run it. A document that declares PDF/UA-2 and does not meet it is
+worse than one that makes no claim, because the claim is what a reader
+relying on assistive software will trust. The declaration costs one
+line and validating it is the only thing that makes the line true.
+
+veraPDF is not packaged in Debian; download it from
+https://verapdf.org/ and put it on your PATH.
+
+For a quicker look at whether a PDF carries any structure at all,
+without checking conformance:
 
   python3 -c "import pikepdf,sys; d=pikepdf.open(sys.argv[1]); \
     print(d.Root.get('/StructTreeRoot') and 'tagged' or 'UNTAGGED')" file.pdf
 
-That confirms structure exists but not that the file conforms to
-PDF/UA-2. Full conformance checking needs veraPDF
-(https://verapdf.org/), which is not packaged in Debian.
