Read the first 6 Document and Media Accessibility Questions and Answers flashcards as text

  1. What does 'tagged PDF' mean in the context of document accessibility?

    Answer: A PDF containing semantic structure tags that define reading order and element roles

    Tagged PDFs include structural tags (headings, paragraphs, lists, tables) that allow assistive technologies to interpret and present content correctly.

  2. Which of the following is an accessibility requirement for data tables in documents?

    Answer: Header cells must be marked up to identify the headers for rows and columns

    Marking up header cells with appropriate tags (e.g., in HTML or header cell designations in PDF) allows screen readers to announce which header applies to each data cell.

  3. What is a 'reading order' issue in an accessible PDF?

    Answer: The order in which a screen reader presents content does not match the logical visual flow

    Reading order problems occur when the underlying tag sequence in a PDF does not match the intended logical order, causing screen readers to announce content out of sequence.

  4. What multimedia accessibility feature benefits users who are blind and listening to an audio-only podcast?

    Answer: A transcript

    A text transcript allows users who are deaf-blind (using braille displays) or who cannot access audio to read the full content of a podcast or audio recording.

  5. In accessible document authoring, what is the correct accessibility practice for a decorative image?

    Answer: Assign a null (empty) alt attribute so screen readers skip it

    Decorative images that convey no meaning should have an empty alt attribute (alt="") so screen readers ignore them and avoid presenting irrelevant information.

  6. Which WCAG success criterion most directly governs the requirement for captions on prerecorded video content?

    Answer: 1.2.2 Captions (Prerecorded)

    WCAG 1.2.2 Captions (Prerecorded) at Level A requires synchronized captions for all prerecorded audio content in synchronized media.
