Are you using File > Publish or Save As HTML?

Save As HTML doesn't give you too much control over the output. You should try FrameMaker's Publish command (File > Publish) and see if the alt text passes through.

Is this structured or unstructured FM (and what vintage FM)?

And what dialog are you using to input the alt= (or title=) text?

we are using unstructured FM 2017 v14.0

I am selecting the achored frame, and going in to the "object attributes" and I put something in the "alt" and also the "actual" field.

any advice is appreciated.

What exact dialog path is that? (and this is FM2019, 15.0.5.838, unstruct)
I see Graphics » Object Properties, but it has no Alt field.
No Attributes dialogs in sight.

That aside, I'm wondering if any Alt would need to be applied to the content of the AF, and not the frame itself.
