How to make your marketing documents more accessible
Listen now
Description
Did you know that in Australia, over 13 million people have one or more chronic (long-term) eye conditions? And that over 575,000 are blind or vision impaired in Australia alone. I certainly didn’t. And I’m embarrassed to admit that until I met Katherine Collins, a graphic designer that specialises in creating accessible documents, I had never really spared a thought about the importance of making marketing material more accessible. In this episode, Katherine talks about what document accessibility is and how we can all start to make our communications more inclusive. If you are interested in checking out the Website Content Accessibility Guidelines – you can see them here: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/ Also, if you want to make your Word docs more accessible, if you are using a Mac, you will see a big button that says ‘Check Accessibility’ in the tool bar in when you are in the ‘Review’ tab.
