Subject: RE: [office-accessibility] Draft suggested outline for the Accessibility Appendix of the ODF 1.1 specification
Regrets for today's meeting. I am in Austria at ICCHP and highly involved. Will be back on track next week. - Mike -----Original Message----- From: Malte Timmermann [mailto:Malte.Timmermann@Sun.COM] Sent: Thursday, July 13, 2006 8:27 AM To: office-accessibility@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: Re: [office-accessibility] Draft suggested outline for the Accessibility Appendix of the ODF 1.1 specification Some comments: - ALT text (in all of the various places they can go) Include suggested UI for setting them What means "suggested" here? - Soft page break generation That is not a recommendation. The recommendation is: "If the application paginates the document, soft page breaks should be indicated in the document file." Malte.
