Thanks so much, Tom.  I will investigate these tutorials.  Also, is it
possible to put a power point on the web?  Surely it is.

Hi,

Freedom Scientific has a Powerpoint tutorial on their training web page.
The tutorial is pretty good, though I did run into some problems in one
section where even though it's for JAWS users, it talks about dragging
things around with a mouse.  Right. Like that's gonna happen.

 

Another tutorial that I found fairly useful is available at:

 

http://www.utexas.edu/disability/ai/resource/tutorials_classes/

 

Unlike the FS tutorial, this one just tells you the procedures for putting
Powerpoint presentations together without specific examples, so you have
plenty of leeway to design anything you want to.  I like that aspect of it.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Tom

Does anyone know of an accessible Power Point tutorial which is friendly to
screen readers?  Also, I have a link to the accessible publishing wizard,
which was supposed to take you to information about accessible power points
on the web.  The link I was given does not work.  Can anyone help with my
two questions?  Thank you.
