Step | Steps for creating accessible documents in Word | For more information, see | ||
---|---|---|---|---|
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. | |||
2 | Add alternate text to images.
| 3 | 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. |
|
4 | Use meaningful link anchors rather than URLs when possible. |
| ||
5 | Configure PDFMaker to tag the document properly. |
