What makes these templates accessible?

They use the Accessibility features provided by Windows and Office and have been improved with the following:

The accessible templates now have an enriched color contrast so the users neither find any dull, hard-to-read text nor miss out on the meaning that specific colors convey. Adequate contrast for the text and background colors makes the text in the documents, slides and spreadsheets really easy-to-read. All styles, cell styles, table borders and data labels in the Office templates pass the color contrast ratio.

New

You can see noticeable changes in the new version of the Personal budget Excel template. Unlike the old version, the accessible template uses colors in the high contrast mode.

Meaningful alt text

The accessible templates include alt text for tables, pictures, charts and other visual objects in the Office templates for the convenience of users.

Alt text comprises words that best describe the picture, graphic or background used in the templates. When a screen reader reads out the alt text of an image, users can easily understand what the image is all about. Redundant words like “an image of”, “Design of”, or “It is a graphic of” have been removed to retain focus only on what is relevant.

Word

New

For example, there was no alt text for the main image in the old version of the Student report with cover photo Word template. In the Accessible version, the alt text ('Bright blue glacial lake surrounded by white ice on a dark mountain') provides a clear description of the image to the visually challenged users through screen readers.

Simple table structures

A screen reader loses cell count if a table is nested, or a cell is merged or split. For example: A heavily formatted table is often part of a form, which cannot easily be read by the screen reader due to navigational problems. Keeping in mind the Accessibility requirements, our templates now include simple table structures with clear headings, and no blank cells. The screen reader uses the header information to identify rows and columns, and provides a meaningful information to the user.

New

In the old version of the To do list Word template, there was no information about rows and columns. The accessible template includes a simple table structure, and clearly specifies row and column header information.

Larger font size

The font size is set to 11 points and above in our enhanced templates. Using larger fonts, we aim to reduce the reading load for our partially sighted users. This font size has been fixed for writing the text as well as HTML addresses in the Accessible Templates.

In the previous version of the Project task list Word template, the minimum font size was 8.5 points. We set the font size to 11 points and above in the new version making it really easy to read for our partially sighted users.

Input messages

The accessible Excel Templates now include input messages, which are read out by the screen readers to help users understand how a workbook can be used. These input messages assist the users in entering inputs in a spreadsheet. Separate input messages have been provided for all worksheets and editable cells.

  • PowerPoint slides with better reading order: In accessible PowerPoint templates, we have improved the reading order for slide content by making it logical for user actions. Moreover, each slide in the accessible template contains a unique title wherein a user can enter the title of his choice. For example, the reading order was- Title, Content and Picture which has been changed to Title, Picture and Content. Earlier, the title in a slide was ‘Click to add tile’ and now it says, “Add a Slide Title – 1.”

  • Hyperlink information: Mostly, users don’t find clear and accurate information about the hyperlinks inserted in a document, spreadsheet or presentation. The accessible templates include appropriate description about the hyperlinks. For example, click here hyperlink is not helpful to a user who cannot see the link. Consequently, we use full title of the destination page, e.g. Visit Microsoft OneNote - Official Site, which comes with screen tips.

  • Headings in logical format: Our users need headings ordered logically. The accessible templates provide headings in a rational order, such as Heading 1, Heading 2, and then Heading 3, instead of presenting these in a random way. Ideally, the headings should not have names that are “too long”.

  • Content controls with titles and tags: Our latest Word templates use Rich Text Content Controls with values in both Titles and Tags for the screen readers to read out the editable text. This way, users can easily enter the text of a heading in an area identified for it.

  • Evergreen date: There is no relevance of information that is too old to be used. That’s why, we introduced the feature of Evergreen Date. Now, whenever the users open an Accessible spreadsheet, they hear the current date (Today), instead of the date when the template was created.
