Documents and Presentations for Accessibility

The Microsoft Accessibility Checker is built into Word, PowerPoint, and other Office tools to help you identify and fix accessibility issues in your documents. It checks for problems like color contrast, reading order, and missing alt text, then generates a list of errors and warnings with step-by-step guidance for fixing each one. Making your documents accessible before saving them as PDFs ensures that all users can access and navigate the content effectively, regardless of format.
