Google has several features that help document creators and editors to create more
accessible documents. During this session, you will learn tools and techniques in
Google to make sure that your documents are more accessible. At a minimum, we will
discuss and demonstrate how Google supports creating accessible document titles, properly
structured headings, properly structured lists, text equivalents for visual elements,
more accessible data tables, using color more carefully, and providing descriptive
text for links.
We will also discuss Grackle Docs, which is necessary to create accessible PDF files
from Google documents. In addition, we will focus on how to best to use tables, strategies
for simplifying complex tables, and the necessities of accessible tables, such as
proper header structure.
