Document Accessibility refers to making electronic information fully accessible and universally usable. This includes PDFs, Word Docs, as well as other formats including Excel, PowerPoint, emails, and Web pages. Although we address standards such as Section 508 and W3C, our focus is on making documents navigable and readable for screen reader users, primarily JAWS. This seasonal newsletter will include news on: 1) advances in technologies for developing and testing accessible documents; 2) available services; and 3) helpful tips and answers to frequently asked questions. For example, this month's newsletter discusses how to use MAGic and JAWS together to make testing for sighted folks much easier.
Document Accessibility is produced by Access Ingenuity. Founded in 2002 in the California Bay Area, we are dedicated to providing assistive technology and complete accessible solutions designed to meet the needs of individuals, companies, institutions, and community based organizations. Access Ingenuity is also the Freedom Scientific representative for California. We pride ourselves as JAWS experts, in training, testing, and using.
Again, please respond directly to marks@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to receive the Doc Access newsletter. We do not sell or share any information, and you can be taken off the list at any time by clicking the link at the bottom of the newsletter. If you have any questions or suggestions, please email me at the same address.
