Accessibility features help users with physical disabilities,
such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to use software products
successfully.
The major accessibility features in this product enable users
to do the following tasks:
- Use assistive technologies, such as screen-reader software and
digital speech synthesizer, to hear what is displayed on the screen.
Consult the product documentation of the assistive technology for
details about using those technologies with this product.
- Operate specific or equivalent features by using only the keyboard.
- Magnify what is displayed on the screen.
In addition, the documentation was modified to include the
following features to aid accessibility:
- All documentation is available in HTML formats to give the maximum
opportunity for users to apply screen-reader software technology.
- All images in the documentation are provided with alternative
text so that users with vision impairments can understand the contents
of the images.
- For more information, see Accessibility and keyboard shortcuts in the product documentation.
