Step | Steps for creating accessible documents in FrameMaker | |
---|---|---|
1 | Design with accessibility in mind. Only use our template styles, including character styles for common formatting such as bold and italic. Resist overriding template styles. See http://www.webaim.org/ for more information. | |
2 | Use our latest FrameMaker template (on the following network drive: L:\Technical Writing\Templates\FrameMaker Templates\Current FM Templates) that consolidates all paragraph styles into each file in the book. | |
3 | Add alternate text to images.
| |
4 | Use row and column headings and captions for all tables. Do not merge table rows or columns. Do not allow rows to break across pages. |
|
5 | Use meaningful link anchors rather than URLs when possible. Use the Go to URL hypertext marker for all URLs in FrameMaker. | |
6 | In the PDF Setup dialog box, select Generate PDF Bookmarks, Generate Tagged PDF (click Default to tag all styles), and Create Named Destinations for All Paragraphs. |
Use the latest book file in the template to inherit appropriate bookmark and tag options.
