Tags alt and accessibility PDF text
I'm completely confused. I just finished the layout of a 176 page book in ID and I'm tagging the book for PDF accessibility. I read that it is better to tag in ID before exporting to PDF. My problem is, I don't know what I'm supposed to do or how to do it, and everything I read is me even more confused. I'm getting nowhere.
I do not expect a complete cycle on it, but can someone please answer a few questions to give me a good boost (I can even ask the wrong questions). 1.) how can you add alt text to the graphics in ID or Acrobat? 2.) how to add a tag in the code. I mean, I can add a tag, but I don't know where or why I'm adding. 3.) how do you manually tag a file in Acrobat 9 Pro or change brands of car once it's done?
I use the latest version ID and Acrobat Pro and the latest version of Mac OS x.
Thank you.
Yes, you can graphics of InDesign alt tag, and it is easier than post tagging in Acrobat, in my opinion:
1. open the tags panel. It comes to XML tags. No HTML, but you can add an Alt attribute to the Image tag in the Structure pane (view > Structure)
2. When you click on the big, black point at the top of the Structure pane, you are presented with a dialog box offering the attribute and the value. The attribute is 'Alt' and the value is the text label you want to describe the graph. NOTE: when you type * Alt * do not forget to type with a capital A, tiny ell, te lowercase, otherwise it won't work in the PDF file. This may be a bug.
3. export to Adobe PDF. In general options, make sure to activate a switch that says this * create PDF tag *.
You probably chose the smaller size Preset file at the top of the dialog box, too, or a variant of user-friendly web of sRGB on it!
Hope this helps,

Enable advanced tagging vs enable accessibility and reflow with tagged Adobe PDF
Is anyone know the difference between these two parameters in the PDFMaker preferences?
Enable advanced tagging vs enable accessibility and reflow with tagged Adobe PDF
I can't find any information that distinguishes these two parameters are mutually exclusive. I am trying to decide what is the best when you create a PDF document that is signposted from MS Word. If someone has an idea, I would be very happy.
"Advanced marking" is changing the way that some elements of the page are defined (table of cells, lines, boxes, etc.), who makes the most reliable conversion of "Visual" in PDF Acrobat forms fields. You must have the option "enable accessibility and reflow with tagged Adobe PDF" as well on, or tags are not created at all.

PDF files: How can you save a file so that you can select and copy some text?
I have some difficulty to save PDF files in photoshop.
I saved a handful of PDF files, but I am only able to select and copy the text in some areas. These files have different areas that contain text. You are able to highlight a part of the text, but in other areas, you can not (even if they have the same font).
The question is, which gives the text the ability to be selected and copied during registration as a PDF document?
Including...
Using BOLD, ITALICS or ALL uppercase in the settings of character disables the ability to highlight and copy the text once the file is saved in PDF format.

Is it allowed to use the name of the alt and title all at the same time in an img tag?
Just a quick question of simple semantics/syntax.
I have an image file, and after some research, I discovered the difference between alt and title. However, I still don't know if it's good practice to use all or an attribute and name them all the same thing.
"" for example < img src = "... / nsd/sdg.jpg" alt = "a pic" title = "peaking" name = "peaking" >
It would be the good use of the use of attributes, including about crawlers like google?
Thanks Dreamweaver forum, people are so great and very helpful. -I am committed to helping others when I can, too.

The image alt attribute is for the accessibility of the web. He picked up some screen readers & displays in browsers when the image does not load. To all intent & purpose, alt attributes are not important to the search engines. If that is your goal, use a
. On the other hand, the title attribute displays the information in a ToolTip to give users an idea of what is contained in the image or the link in which it occurs.
EXAMPLE:
http://example.com" title = 'link to example.com'>alt ="Tulip">

PDF/A, when I have a standard PDF file and add some text to it, and then save as PDF/A, there is an error. Any ideas?
Preflight check should give you an idea of the problem. It may be that the file must be flattened before attempting the conversion. Not all aspects of a PDF file can be converted to PDF/A.

What am I missing - it can be difficult to create a PDF file and put in text
I'm experimenting Acrobat X
(1) so I want to create a file PDF - ahhh, how is that I need to atually open/import an existing PDF or other document? How do I just start with a blank page. You mean I have to really go and create using another program, or did I miss something, because my definition of creation, is to create, not to modify any other document?
(2) so that I had a PDF file that I had collected from different sources and added a blank page at the beginning.
On this blank page, I went to tools | Change the text & objects | Add or change the Tex box. and added a text box. Where can I really format the text, with the exception of the base font and size. How can I make "BOLD" or anything else for that matter. In fact I entered the line, and breaks when I clear the text box, he removed all.
I looked in the forums, I watched your videos, which ideally stop before explaing the "Add or edit text box.
I found that I could use the Documents to text editing to change the text that was already there, but seriously its very very and I mean very easy Assembly - it seems to be nothing complicated about this, including any "BOLD", or Itallics. Maybe he has ben that the police was not available, and so I couldn't change the size of the stroke (if that's what is classified as "BOLD").
Sheesh I have more editing control by using the $ 20 million program, that I bought at another provider, what looks like closely using MS Word and allows me to implement editable forms.
So what - that I'm missing? where is the creation, where is the feature? Y at - it another program that Adobe uses to CREATE a PDF file?
Thank you
John,
Acrobat is used to create PDFs from other files. Originally, all files would be printed to the file as a postscript file which would be distilled manually (using Acrobat Distiller). Today, there are two basic methods for creating pdf files. Adobe has simplified things a bit for you that you can print to a virtual printer which will create a temporary postscript file that will be sent to distil for you and create a pdf file. For some programs, such as Microsoft Office programs have a plug-in which will create the PDF directly from the Office program without using the virtual printer to create an Adobe Acrobat PDF file.
When you have a PDF, the Acrobat program can be used to change the pdf file (create the form fields, write comments, crop the pdf file, combine PDFs etc..). The content of the pdf file must be in paper virtual (or better still stone). You can add emblishments, but not easily change its contents.

How can I add a tag alt of an image in Photoshop CS5 to make web ready?
How can I add a tag alt of an image in Photoshop CS5 to make web ready? My web developer wants I to send him all my images with an assigned alt tag so that it allows to automate the ADA Web site accessibility. I know when I chose "Save for Web & Devices", I have the possibility of how metadata I want to include at the levels of: None, right copyright, Copyright and Contact info, everything except the camera Info, all. I don't want the public to be able to view all the metadata, because a lot of it is sensitive to the administrative notes. Any ideas?
Alt tags have nothing to do with metadata. They are what the name suggests - additional HTML code. Your timer will insert, you can simply provide the text to use.

With the help of Master pages and blocks of text
Hello
I created a text frame on a master page and you have specified a style
Can I add my custom text on the text block by pressing ctrl + Maj + text block.
If I change the style, it applies to all pages. But if I move or resize the text block on the page master it does not apply to all pages because it has become its own layer on this page.
What do you do before you can change the text block and the master page and still be able to add your own content in pages that depend on the master page.
Thanks a lot for your help
Why do you need to replace the title of the page?
Use either a text variable, a section marker or create another master page based on this master page with a different text in the placeholder. Only the content will appear on the pages, everything else, like running headers or page numbers or artifacts have a place on the master page without replacing them.
When you later create accessible PDF or EPUB this difference is important. You can read high voice content in Acrobat for accessibility, that text on the page, not the master is used for this, and when you export an EPUB page only elements, not the master are included as it should.
If you need text to expand, when something changes, create your page with margins and borders that will help to make changes later.

Tags alt in preferences?
I try to keep my valid markup.
I'm lazy when inserting an image that I do not use the alt tag option as is usually my last on my list is to reference everything when the site is finished. More change of images and images of small buttons do not really require tags ALT.
Is there a way to Dreamweaver to add the Alt attribute automatically alt = "" in the preferences when you insert an image? "
Thank you
as I do not use the alt tag option as is usually my last on my list is to reference everything when the site is finished.
I used to have the same workflow and adding images alt at the end was a pain.
Now I edit > Preferences > accessibility, Images checked and DW invites me to insert the attribute alt every time I have to insert an image.
http://www.Adobe.com/accessibility/products/Dreamweaver/overview.html
I decided that it is better to be forced to do it as I go rather than to review the images when my design is done.

Tags HTML and code displayed on the page of the App.
I'm working on Apex 4.2 on a group calendar page pre-packaged application 1
I have modified this code in the area of legend on page 1 and then noticed that when I did the raw html code was posted on the page instead of the data parsed html (see image)
I do not see the HTML tags and the code on the page? However when I replaced the modified code with the original code (as shown in the picture which is the original code) I still see HTML tags?
How can I fix the code in the legend area so the HTML is parsed and the display on the screen does not include HTML tags and or code on the page?

Make sure the column attribute to display as is defined on the column Standard report and not display text (escape special characters, does not save the State).
