Document Generation Accessibility
Business Background
Use documents that comply with WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines). A document complies with WCAG when it meets the accessibility standards set out in the WCAG specifications, ensuring that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the content effectively.
- Perceivable: Information must be presented in ways that users can perceive.
- Text alternatives for non-text content (e.g., alt text for images).
- Content can be presented in different ways (e.g., readable by screen readers).
- Operable: User interface components and navigation must be operable.
- All functionality is accessible via a keyboard (not just a mouse).
- Clear and consistent navigation and focus order.
- Understandable: Content must be easy to understand.
- Clear and simple language.
- Predictable behavior (e.g., consistent navigation).
- Input fields are labeled and provide instructions or error messages.
- Robust: Content must be compatible with current and future user tools.
- Use of clean, valid HTML or PDF tags.
- Works with screen readers, magnifiers, voice recognition, etc.
- Follows ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) guidelines if applicable.
