508 compliance

[jay fresno]

When 508 compliance is turned on in Captivate, and then the Captivate project is published as a FLV, can the text on the screen be read by screen readers for visually impaired?

Hi Jay

I'm going to say no. This is because it is currently impossible to publish a Captivate output in .FLV format. At least, not from Captivate as it ships.

Cheers... Rick

Can a screen reader read the Captivate slides if published as SWF?

Hi again Jay

Only if you enable 508 compliance, then add Accessibility text in the areas where you are able.

Cheers... Rick
