PPT2HTML accessibility features
PPT2HTML was originally inspired by the notion of making PowerPoint presentations accessible to people who use assistive technologies like screen readers.
Among other features that help you create more accessible PowerPoint presentations, PPT2HTML
- Has an Accessibility Assistant that lets you add or edit the ALT text on any shape in the presentation, reorder shapes so that screenreaders and other assistive devices "see" them in the correct order, create linearized tables from your PowerPoint charts and more.
- Helps you convert sounds in PowerPoint to sounds that can play over the web during your presentations
- The Nav.Map placeholder converts clickable links and actions in PowerPoint to the nearest equivalent HTML link and automatically includes appropriate ALT text tags to identify what the links do.
- Nav.Map also picks up the alternative text you enter in Accessibility Assistant and converts that text to ALT tags as well.
- PPT2HTML's many Text placeholders let you extract text from PowerPoint slides and display it on your web pages as plain HTML text.
We recommend that you experiment with the templates supplied with PPT2HTML, especially:
- The PLAINTEXT template for screenreader users
- The PLAINTEXT template modified to include sound
- Plain Text with Exported Shapes
