Accessibility Awareness @a11yawareness.bsky.social · 03/04/2025

When creating PDFs, avoid using "Print to PDF." A screen reader user may still be able to access the text of PDFs created this way, but heading structure, alternative text, and any other tag structure will be lost. Using "Save As" or "Export" can preserve these tags.

Trudeau makes the most of his last day as Prime Minister to call out Pierre Poilievre’s refusal to get security clearance or even receive security briefings. What his game? Every journalist should be asking him this question and keep asking until he gives an answer. #CdnPoli youtu.be/RvVDFdvaO3Y?...

Generally we think of alt-text as the domain of those with accessibility needs. However alt-text is useful for many reasons, which benefit your viewers, as well as you, the creator!

An infographic. There are six panels.

1. "Slow internet. Alt text is shown in place of unloaded images." a drawing shows a phone with poor signal, and alt text is visible where the image should have loaded.

2. "Findabillity. Alt text helps to search content." A drawing shows someone searching 'dog with banana' and a post is shown underneath without the words 'dog' or 'banana'. It is implied to be part of the alt text.

3. "Screen readers. Alt is read out to people using text-to-speech software". There is a drawing of the output a screen-reader would show when viewing an image with alt text on bluesky.

4. "Translation. Alt text can be translated". A drawing shows a post being translated. The alt text is also translated into german.

5. "Readability. Text in images can be made legible" There is a drawing of some truly awful handwriting inside a speech bubble. The alt text clarifies what the text is supposed to say.

6. "Disambiguation. Description helps clarify intent." There is a drawing of a post with a picture of a creature. This is styled after the famous optical illusion of a rabbit and a duck. The alt text clarifies that the animal is a rabbit. It definitely looks more like a duck.

And ChatGPT is great for quickly creating alt-text. Just paste the image and use this prompt. Create a text description for this image that I can use for an image alt tag. Don't created the code for the tag. Just give me the text. #EduSky #Edtech #InclusiveEdtech #UDL
