Generally, it is good to avoid tables in Docx unless highly necessary. It is better to present data in headings, paragraphs, and banners for Word documents accessibility. Tables are a hindrance to magnifier usage for those who use them, especially on mobile devices. To make tables accessible, we ensure tables are rendered properly on all devices like phones and tablets. Hyperlink placement needs to be done correctly so that they don't break mid-sentence. Our experts check accessible Word documents manually for their readability with Magnifier, for a clear view on different devices without the need to horizontally scroll.
Optimizing the data table for accessibility is important. We optimize data tables and structure them correctly into columns and rows. So that those using a screen reader can associate well for information access.
For easy navigation, doing the right Docx structuring with Title, Subtitle, and Headings is important. It allows those with disabilities to scan the Docx both visually and with assistive technology. We will organize headings in a logical order (H1, H2, and H3, in place of H3, H1, and then H2). Furthermore, we check the information in your document is in digestible chunks.
Apart from using headings for content organization in the document, we also create paragraph banners as alternatives to tables and organize and separate content.
Alt text helps people with visual disabilities to see the screen and understand the important things present in visual content including pictures, charts, embedded objects, shapes, groups, SmartArt graphics, videos, and more. Alt text briefly describes the image with the mention of its intent. We check that the right repetition of text in content alongside its intent gets conveyed unambiguously.
If there is any link to audio and video content, then, in addition to alt text, we also provide closed captioning for people with hearing impairment. We optimize grouped objects in a diagram, flatten the diagram into a picture, and add alt text to the picture. We optimize the grouped objects, keeping child objects in the tab order with groups, and more.
We use full titles to specify destination pages to convey accurate information about the destination. It helps users with disabilities to scan a list of links. Adding ScreenTips further enhances the ease of navigation for hyperlinks in the accessible documents Docx for users with disabilities.
We ensure the usage of an accessible font and font color that would not hamper the reading speed of those reading a document, especially those with vision or hearing impairment. It is important to ensure the legibility and readability of the document. We take care of all aspects like using bold font or larger font in headings, ensuring all color-coded hyperlink text is underlined so that people who are colorblind know about the link, status indication through shapes, and more.
We ensure curation of accessible lists for screen readers to read the document, and organize the information in the document placing small chunks like bulleted or numbered lists without interruptions (like small paragraphs in between) that can hamper screen readers.
We ensure the accessible documents Docx have proper amount of white space, indents, and spacing in words, between the lines, and in paragraphs so that those with dyslexia have a minimized burden of reading text.
Our experts identify and check if the Word document name is the human-readable title of the document as assistive technology users focus on the Microsoft Word screen to read the document name loudly to them. It’s important to have a human-readable name that gives an apt description of the accessible Word documents.
We set the properties of the document to feed the right metadata that helps assistive software, search engines, and PDF conversion tools comprehend and report the document’s basic information.
