Accessibility features for Acoustic Content

Accessibility features assist users who have a disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to use information technology content successfully.

Accessibility features

Acoustic Content includes the following major accessibility features:

Keyboard-only operation
Operations that use a screen reader

Acoustic Content uses the latest W3C Standard, WAI-ARIA 1.0 to ensure compliance to US Section 508, and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0. To take advantage of accessibility features, use the latest release of your screen reader in combination with the latest web browser that is supported by this product.

The Acoustic Content online product documentation in IBM® Knowledge Center is enabled for accessibility. The accessibility features of IBM Knowledge Center are described at IBM Knowledge Center release notes.

Keyboard navigation

This product uses standard navigation keys.

Interface information

The Acoustic Content user interfaces do not have content that flashes 2 - 55 times per second.

The Acoustic Content web user interfaces rely on cascading style sheets to render content properly and to provide a usable experience. The application provides an equivalent way for low-vision users to use a user’s system display settings, including high-contrast mode. You can control font size by using the device or web browser settings.

The Acoustic Content web user interface includes WAI-ARIA navigational landmarks that you can use to quickly navigate to functional areas in the application.

Mobile applications
