YOUR INDUSTRY OR SERVICE SECTOR

ntrng a new standard can seem a
daunting task, especially if you have
never before thought of yourself as an
author. However, ASTM, a consensus
organization that wholly promotes
collaborative efforts, offers many tools to get you started and see you through until the end
or, at least, until someone votes negative.

HOW GOOD IS MY IDEA?
The first step is to introduce the
idea for a new standard to the appro-

priate subcommittee. The concept
must fall under the subcommittee's
scope, first and foremost. The subcommittee should agree that the proposed activity is worthwhile, feasible,
and needed. More importantly, verify
that the standard you hope to write
does not already exist under thejurisdiction of another committee or organization. Avoid duplication of effort and jurisdictional disputes!
To do this, do a keyword search of
all approved ASTM standards on the
ASTM Web site (see "Search for Individual Standards" in the ToolBox). If a
standard turns up that sciunds similar

to the one you are about to write, contact your staff manager for further information. In addition, your staff
manager can assist in finding out
whether your or another committee
has a work in progress on a similar or
related subject by searching draft
standards under development in

made aware of, or invited to participate in, a given activity; (4) identifying the end users; (5) creating a task
group representing all interests; (6)
enabling the subcommittee to track a
task group's efforts; and (7) publicity.
Ideally, the task group would be
formed under the subcommittee with

ASTM.

ments of standards development and
maintenance. By coordinating openly
with other members, a task group can
bring together key stakeholders and
receive input at the start of a project,
rather than later on when much time
and energy has been expended.
Furthermore, when a subcommittee identifies other subcommittees
that should be represented on the task
group, the subcommittee chairman
should inform his or her staff manager. The manager will initiate coordination between the two or more subcommittees. Then, additional members will join the task group to represent the interests of the committees to
which they belong. We call this a
"joint task group." This could also be
the case for representatives from organizations other than ASTM. The
joint task group is a vehicle for individuals to communicate their interests.

YOUR FIRST DRAFT GOES TO
BALLOT
A first draft typically goes to a
subcommittee ballot and receives its
first round of comments and negatives. This is actually very positive and

productive for the task group.
If, as mentioned above, a joint
task group is working on the draft because another subcommittee needs to
be involved, an "informational ballot"
is an option. In addition to balloting
within the subcommittee with
jurisdiction, a different subcommittee may receive an informational ballot. Comments received on the informational ballot are handled in
the same manner as a negative
or comment on the official
ballot.

The draft will have
become a consensus

document created,
refined, and agreed
upon by the experts
in the industry.

Doing the research up
front will save time and energy. Ask questions of your subcommittee, such as: "Is it possible that the standard will be
cited in a building code ?" "Will
a government agency or regulatory
body adopt the standard ?"

Introduction
As an expert in accessibility of written materials for people who have disabilities that
affect using standard print (people who are print disabled), I have been retained by
Public.Resource.Org to evaluate the accessibility of certain online content available on the
websites of the plaintiffs and the defendant in this case. As someone dedicated to improving
accessibility for the benefit of people with disabilities and in the public interest, I agreed to
evaluate the accessibility to people who are blind of specific commonly used standard documents
located on different websites.
This expert report is a summary of certain opinions that I intend to give, if asked, at trial
regarding the accessibility of documents on various websites to people who are blind. This
report also states the bases for my opinions, and it discloses the data or other information
considered in forming those opinions. I reserve the right to change or supplement this report if
additional evidence comes to my attention, and to prepare demonstratives and/or exhibits to
illustrate or explain my opinions, as appropriate.
A copy of my curriculum vitae, including a list of my publications and presentations, is
Exhibit A to this report. I provide my expertise in this case pro bono, and I am not receiving
compensation for my time researching, writing this report, or testifying. I previously served as
an expert in The Authors Guild, Inc. et al. v. HathiTrust, et al., Case No. 1:11-cv-06351-HB
(S.D.N.Y.) (case filed September 12, 2011), although I did not testify in that case. I have not
given deposition or trial testimony in the past four years.

Background and Qualifications
I serve as Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Benetech, a nonprofit dedicated to
creating new technology solutions that serve humanity and empower people to improve their
lives. In 1980 I earned a B.S. in Engineering and an M.S. in Applied Physics from California
Institute of Technology. I co-founded Calera Recognition Systems in 1982. Calera developed
optical character recognition (OCR) technology that allowed computers to read virtually all
printed text.
In 1989, I founded Arkenstone, a nonprofit social enterprise, which produced reading
machines for the print disabled community based on the Calera technology, and was at one time
the largest maker of affordable reading systems for the blind. The Arkenstone product line was
sold in 2000 and the resulting capital funded the next phase of Arkenstone under its new name,
Benetech. I have been the CEO of Benetech/Arkenstone since 1989.
I have served on three U.S. federal government advisory committees for disability issues:
the Section 255 Telecommunications Access Advisory Committee, the Section 508 Electronic
Information and Technology Access Advisory Committee, and the Advisory Commission on
Accessible Instructional Materials in Postsecondary Education for Students with Disabilities.
I have received numerous other awards and recognition for my work making print materials
accessible to people who are blind or otherwise print disabled. In 2006 I received a MacArthur
Fellowship. I was named an Outstanding Social Entrepreneur in 2003 by the Schwab
Foundation and have frequently participated in the World Economic Forum Annual Meetings in
Davos, Switzerland. Benetech received the Skoll Award for Social Entrepreneurship under my
leadership. I also received the Migel Medal from the American Foundation for the Blind, the
Robert F. Bray Award from the American Council of the Blind, and the American Library
2

Association’s Francis Joseph Campbell Award in recognition of my successful efforts to make
literary works more accessible to people who are blind or visually impaired.

What Does Accessibility Mean for a Blind Person?
Accessibility is usually defined in a functional way: can a person with a disability
independently access the same information and perform the same tasks as a person without a
disability? When it comes to accessing materials traditionally available as print, such as
standards, there are many groups of print disabilities. The most severe is blindness, where a
person cannot perceive the printed text at all. The next is vision impairment, where a person
generally cannot perceive the text directly or with corrective lens, but may be able to use
magnifiers of different types to read the text. Another group is learning disabilities that interfere
with reading, such as dyslexia. A closely related group of disabilities involve brain injuries that
affect reading or the retention of material read. Another group is physical disabilities that
interfere with the holding or seeing of books or the turning of pages.
In this report, I focused on the accessibility challenges that would be experienced by
blind people, because they are generally the most severe print disabilities. The other groups of
people with print disabilities use similar technologies to access print (such as having it read
aloud), and experience similar challenges as blind people. In the accessibility field, it is
generally understood that if you make information accessible to a blind person, it will probably
also meet the accessibility needs of the great majority of people with other print disabilities.
The most common technology used by a blind person for accessibility is called a screen
reader. As the name suggests, a screen reader is a program that runs on a personal computer or a
smartphone that reads the information on the screen aloud (using a computer-synthesized voice)

3

to a blind person. The screen reader runs “on top of” other programs, figuring out not only what
text is on the screen, but also the controls that are displayed: items such as buttons, menus, textentry boxes and the like. Because of the amount of information on a complete screen, and its
complexity, blind people need to be able to focus on the most important information so that they
do not waste time listening to everything on the screen.
For the purpose of this report, measuring the accessibility of standards, I am assuming
that the blind user is using a screen reader on top of a web browser on a personal computer.
Based on the information the screen reader can glean from the web pages displayed on the
screen, can a blind person locate the standard and read it?
The accessibility tasks I tested were designed to assess whether a blind user with basic
assistive technology skills could perform the same kind of tasks one might expect a user without
a disability to perform in accessing a given standard, without requiring the intervention of a third
party. This functional approach is the most common method of assessing accessibility.
The specific tasks I investigated were:


Could a blind user with basic assistive technology skills independently access a
specific standard of interest?



Could a blind user independently read the entire standard using assistive technology?



Could a blind user independently navigate to a specific place in the standard and read
the content in that place?



Could a blind user independently do a full text search and find specific mentions of
terms of interest?

I conducted these tests on a number of the same standards available on the Public.Resource.Org
website and in the free reading sections of the websites of the National Fire Protection

4

Association (NFPA), the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning
Engineers (ASHRAE), and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). I primarily
used the Window-Eyes screen reading software to perform my tests, but I also confirmed some
of my observations with the JAWS screen reading program (these are the two most commonlyused screen reading programs by people who are print disabled). In order to further confirm my
observations, I was assisted by an engineer who is blind and who is a skilled daily user of screen
reader software. This engineer used the JAWS screen reader to confirm that as an individual
who is print disabled and a regular user of a screen reader program, he was unable to access the
website and several specific standards that I had found to be inaccessible to people who are print
disabled.

Overview and Summary of Opinions
Having reviewed the accessibility of the same standards content rendered by
Public.Resource.Org and those of the free access options provided by the NFPA, ASHRAE and
ASTM, it is my opinion that Public.Resource.Org currently provides the only accessible option
for people/citizens with print disabilities to access these standards.
Based on my extensive experience with content accessibility, approaches for “free
access” that make it impossible to copy text generally make it impossible for the assistive
technology used by people with print disabilities, especially blind people, to read the text aloud,
present it visually in more accessible manners, or make the text available in braille.
Technological mechanisms that are designed to stop copying generally have the unfortunate side
effect of locking out people with print disabilities from the ability to read the material.

The versions of the standards on the NFPA, ASHRAE, and ASTM free reading websites
are not available in a way that is accessible to blind users. First, the NFPA and ASTM websites
require registration before a user can access free standards on their websites. Although a blind
user may be able to register on the ASTM website, a person who is blind would not be able to
independently gain access to the NFPA standards because the NFPA website uses a registration
process that employs buttons without proper markings for the blind to perceive them with
accessibility software. Second, the free reading websites for NFPA, ASHRAE, and ASTM each
display their standards in separate windows that prevent assistive technology from perceiving the
words in those windows, meaning that that blind people would not be able to tell the difference
between the standards and a blank window. These websites do not allow the text of the standard
to be read aloud by a screen reader; the navigation controls do not work with a screen reader, so
blind people are unable to navigate to a specific location in the standard; and the text search
function does not work with a screen reader.
In contrast, the versions of the standards on the Public.Resource.Org website are
available in a way that is accessible to blind users. Firstly, the Public.Resource.Org website does
not require a registration process before a user can access the files containing the standards; the
files are directly available to users. Secondly, many of the standards on the Public.Resource.Org
website are available in well-structured HTML, a highly accessible format that allows blind users
similar quality of access as that enjoyed by a person without a disability accessing a print version
of the standard (or a locked digital version). Although some standards are available only in PDF
format on the Public.Resource.Org website, those documents are accessible through extra steps
such as optical character recognition. To summarize, it is my opinion that the standards on the
Public.Resource.Org website are accessible to the blind through screen reader software, whereas

6

the standards on the free reading portions of the NFPA, ASHRAE, and ASTM websites are not
accessible to the blind through screen reader software. Furthermore, it is my opinion that people
with other print disabilities, such as vision impairment, dyslexia, brain injury and physical
disabilities, would find the standards on the Public.Resource.Org accessible with screen readers
and other assistive technology, whereas the standards on the free reading portions of the NFPA,
ASHRAE, and ASTM websites would not be accessible to the great majority of people with
these types of print disabilities.

Testing the National Fire Protection Association Website’s Accessibility
I performed my test of the NFPA, ASHRAE, and ASTM websites in two phases. The
first phase was an investigation of whether a blind or visually impaired person can gain access to
a standard on the NFPA website by going through a process of obtaining free access while using
a screen reading program. On the NFPA website it appears that users must register and agree to
terms of use before accessing any of the free standards on the website. The results of the test are
that a blind user would not be able to independently sign up for a free account on the NFPA
website because the registration process involves elements that cannot be perceived by screen
reading software.
The accessibility standard in common use for websites is the Web Content Accessibility
Guidelines (WCAG), published by the World Wide Web Consortium, the main standards body
for technology related to the Web. A copy of the WCAG is Exhibit C. (As with other World
Wide Web Consortium standards, the WCAG standard is freely available at no cost on the World
Wide Web Consortium website, in HTML, as stated in the World Wide Web Consortium
Document License, Exhibit D). The very first element in the WCAG standard specifies that
7

“information and user interface components must be presentable to users in ways they can
perceive.” The key recommendation for how to address this need is to “provide text alternatives
for any non-text content so that it can be changed into other forms people need, such as large
print, braille, speech, symbols or simpler language.” The two easiest ways to meet this
requirement are to present textual content as text and to add text labels to non-text content. For
example, the text in a regular web page is highly accessible: the screen reader software can
simply grab each word, sentence and paragraph and read it aloud (or make it larger, or provide it
to a braille device). Screen readers understand web page structure, so links and headers are
identified as such when they are read aloud. A visual button on a page can easily have a text
label as part of the web page that identifies its function (for example, “I agree”). A screen reader
encountering such a button on a web page would simply say aloud “Button, I agree,” and the
screen reader provides a blind person with a way to activate the button using the keyboard
(because blind people avoid using mice for obvious reasons).
These fundamental requirements for accessibility are the ones that the NFPA website
fails to meet. Rather than cataloging the many parts of the WCAG accessibility standards the
NFPA website fails to meet, I will focus on two key items. The first is that a blind person trying
to sign up for a free access account needs the assistance of a sighted person to sign up. This is
because, for instance, the NFPA website uses a visual button for the “I Agree” function on its
registration page, and this visual button fails to have a text label, meaning that a blind person
using a screen reader would not know what the button is for. A blind person who arrived at the
point where he or she needed to assent to the terms and conditions after some effort would not be
able to tell what to do, or which button to push, because there is no text equivalent attached to
the “I AGREE” button. On the NFPA website, the screen reader knows that there are buttons but
8

can’t tell what they do because there are no text labels on them, and the letters “I AGREE” are
shown only as a picture of those words, which is not perceptible to a blind person.
The second phase of my test was to perform the functional tests on a specific standard,
NPFA 101-2000. In this second phase of the test is also where the NFPA free access website
fails to make the text accessible, and fails to meet the WCAG accessibility standard mentioned
above. Rather than presenting the text in a standard webpage, which is the typical way to present
information in a web browser, the NFPA site opens an image-only window. Rather than
presenting the text of the standard as HTML text, it presents it as a picture of the text. See the
screen shot below.

To a sighted person, both the text in a standard webpage and the text in an image-only
window looks pretty similar: the words are visible. But, “under the hood,” so to speak, the use of
an image prevents the browser from presenting the text on the screen as text. A browser
ordinarily transmits text to a screen reader in a way that facilitates access for the visually
9

impaired. Instead, when NFPA’s website presents text only within an image, the web browser
processes it as an image, as if someone took a picture of a page and sent it as a photo rather than
sending a text file. The screen reader cannot perceive the text in an image; all the screen reader
can perceive is that there is a big picture on the screen. A screen reader stops working at this
point: it does not know what is in the picture. And so even if a blind person were able to open a
specific standard on the NFPA website, such as NFPA 101, he or she will not be able to perceive
any of the content in the standard because the page appears blank to him or her. This means that
on the NFPA free reading website a blind person cannot independently read the standard, go to a
specific page within it, or search it for terms of interest.

Testing the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning
Engineers Website’s Accessibility
Counsel suggested I investigate the accessibility of ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2010,
Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings (I-P). ASHRAE’s
website does not require a visitor to sign up for a free account before viewing certain standards,
and so a blind user should be able to navigate to the place where online read-only versions of the
standards reside, and then identify specific standards by number and description. Thus, the first
of the four tasks, navigating to a specific standard, is a task that a blind person can perform
independently on the ASHRAE website. See the screen shot below of this portion of the
ASHRAE website with the listing of links to different standards.

10

However, once a specific standard is chosen, the standard is not perceptible to a blind
person, for the same reason that I discussed earlier with respect to the NFPA website. See the
screen shot below of the ASHRAE 90.1-2010 standard as displayed on the website. The text of
the standard is inaccessible to a blind person, and therefore a blind person is unable to perform
the functional accessibility tasks. First, the ASHRAE website presents the standard in a window
that prevents screen reader software from reading aloud the text of the standard. Second, the
navigation controls on the standards-display portion of the ASHRAE website do not work with a
screen reader, so a blind person would be unable to navigate to a specific location in the
standard. Lastly, although there is a text search function that works for a sighted person, I was
unable to get that functionality to work with a screen reader. And, even if I could get the search
function to work with a screen reader, a screen reader would still be unable to read aloud the
actual content of the standard at that point, and so the exercise would be pointless for a blind
person.

11

Because the ASHRAE website provides the content of the standard as an image, it is
inaccessible to a blind person. As I mentioned above, the WCAG accessibility standard requires
the text to be provided for any information delivered as an image, and the ASHRAE website fails
to do so for the standard I tested. I also tested five other ASHRAE standards (ASHRAE 62.12013, 62.2-2013, 90.1-2013 (I-P), 90.2-2007, and 189.1-2014) on the ASHRAE website, and
they all presented the same image-based interface to the standards, and are therefore inaccessible
to blind people.

Testing the American Society for Testing and Materials Website’s Accessibility
Counsel suggested I investigate the accessibility of Standard B557-84 Wrought and Cast
Aluminum- and Magnesium-Alloy Products. The ASTM website requires visitors to sign up for
a free account before viewing certain standards. The process of setting up a free account is
accessible, and therefore a blind person should be able to independently gain access to the

12

ASTM Reading Room, where the standards are located. A blind user could navigate to the place
where online read-only versions of the standards reside, and could identify specific standards by
number and description. Thus the first of the four tasks, navigating to a specific standard, was a
task that a blind person could perform independently. See the screen shot below of this portion
of the ASTM website with the listing of links to different standards.

I was able to locate a version of the standard ASTM B557-84e1. When one selects the standard,
a new window appears with an image-only viewer of the standard. For the same reason as I
described earlier with respect to the NFPA and ASHRAE websites, this standard on the ASTM
website is not perceptible to a blind person. First, the ASTM website presents the standard in a
window that prevents screen reader software from reading aloud the text of the standard.
Second, the navigation controls on the standards-displaying portion of the ASTM website do not
work with a screen reader, so a blind person would be unable to navigate to a specific location in

13

the standard. I was not able to locate a text-searching function on the ASTM standard I
examined.

Because the content of the ASTM standard appears as an image in the ASTM Reading
Room, it is inaccessible to the blind person. As I mentioned above, the WCAG accessibility
standard requires the text to be provided for any information delivered as an image, and the
ASTM website fails to do that for the standard I tested. I also tested the first standard listed on
the website, ASTM A20/A20M-93a, and it presented the same image-based inaccessible
interface to the standard, meaning that a blind person would not be able to perceive it.

Testing the Public.Resource.Org Website’s Accessibility
After unsuccessfully trying to access the NFPA 101-2000, ASHRAE 90.1-2010 and
ASTM B557-84 standards on the websites of the three standards organization as a blind user
would, I went to the same standards on the Public.Resource.Org website and tried the same

14

tasks. I was able to successfully complete all of the accessibility tasks on all three of the
standards on the Public.Resource.Org website.
The Public.Resource.Org website has no required sign-up procedure, so I did not need to
test the accessibility of that process. It is possible to go directly to a specific standard either by
using a direct weblink or by navigating the text-oriented website. For example, searching on the
terms “NFPA 101 resource.org” shows the standard available directly from Google’s search
engine in the top few links, in both PDF and HTML form. HTML is generally more accessible,
so I selected that link and it directly opened up in my browser. The entire text of the standard
was available, and I was able to read the standard using screen reading software, navigate to a
specific place in the document using screen reading software, and search for key terms using
screen reading software. My test therefore indicated that a blind person using a screen reader
would be able to perform all of the functional tasks: reading the entire standard, navigating to a
specific place in the standard, or searching on key terms. Because the text is provided as
standard HTML, a blind person is able to listen to the text, or access it using a digital braille
device. This kind of HTML content is also highly accessible to people with other print
disabilities and the assistive technology they use to access print. For example, people with low
vision or with dyslexia often use a screen reader to read text aloud.

15

I also found a version of the ASTM B557-84 standard on the Public.Resource.Org
website as an HTML file. It was well-structured and highly accessible. Like the NPFA 1012000 standard on the Public.Resource.Org website, this standard could be readily located and
accessed by a blind person using a screen reader, and could then be perceived in its entirety using
the screen reader.
I then examined the accessibility of more recent versions of the NFPA 101 standard
located on the Public.Resource.Org website. These were available only in PDF formats, not
HTML. I accessed the 2012 version of the NPFA 101 standard, and found that it was an imagebased PDF. I also searched for the ASHRAE 90.1-2010 standard and found it in PDF form on
the Public.Resource.Org website without needing to login to access it. It was also an imagebased PDF. Image-based PDFs are generally not accessible to blind people. However, these
files both came with the underlying text associated with the page images. It was possible for me
to open the PDFs in a browser or Adobe Reader, do a Select All command (Control A on a PC),

16

a Copy command (Control C on a PC) and then switch to a text-oriented word processing
program (Microsoft Word) and paste the text of the entire standard into a file there. The text
appeared to be an automatic optical character recognition version of the standard, wh ich meant
there were some errors in the transcription. But, generally the accuracy was sufficient to perform
the funct ional tasks: read ing the entire standard, navigating to a specific place in the standard, or
searching on key terms. It should be noted that this approach wou ld not likely occur to a bl ind
person opening an image PDF file, because the Adobe software does not announce that the
underlying text was present. It is also possible for a blind person to independently perform
optical character recognition on image-based PDFs themselves and access the text that way, and
many advanced computer users that are blind would be aware that this is possible. Although
perform ing optical character recognition on a PDF is not as optimal as having HTML text
avai lab le to read immediately without conversion, this method by which PDFs can be made
perceptible to the blind is still better than having no access, which is effectively what the NFPA,
ASHRAE, and ASTM websites offer.

Abstract
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 covers a wide range of recommendations for making Web content more
accessible. Following these guidelines will make content accessible to a wider range of people with disabilities, including
blindness and low vision, deafness and hearing loss, learning disabilities, cognitive limitations, limited movement, speech
disabilities, photosensitivity and combinations of these. Following these guidelines will also often make your Web content
more usable to users in general.
WCAG 2.0 success criteria are written as testable statements that are not technology-specific. Guidance about satisfying
the success criteria in specific technologies, as well as general information about interpreting the success criteria, is
provided in separate documents. See Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Overview for an introduction and links
to WCAG technical and educational material.
WCAG 2.0 succeeds Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 [WCAG10], which was published as a W3C
Recommendation May 1999. Although it is possible to conform either to WCAG 1.0 or to WCAG 2.0 (or both), the W3C
recommends that new and updated content use WCAG 2.0. The W3C also recommends that Web accessibility policies
reference WCAG 2.0.

Introduction
This section is informative.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 defines how to make Web content more accessible to people with
disabilities. Accessibility involves a wide range of disabilities, including visual, auditory, physical, speech, cognitive,
language, learning, and neurological disabilities. Although these guidelines cover a wide range of issues, they are not able
to address the needs of people with all types, degrees, and combinations of disability. These guidelines also make Web
content more usable by older individuals with changing abilities due to aging and often improve usability for users in
general.
WCAG 2.0 is developed through the W3C process in cooperation with individuals and organizations around the world, with
a goal of providing a shared standard for Web content accessibility that meets the needs of individuals, organizations, and
governments internationally. WCAG 2.0 builds on WCAG 1.0 [WCAG10] and is designed to apply broadly to different Web
technologies now and in the future, and to be testable with a combination of automated testing and human evaluation. For
an introduction to WCAG, see the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Overview.
Web accessibility depends not only on accessible content but also on accessible Web browsers and other user agents.
Authoring tools also have an important role in Web accessibility. For an overview of how these components of Web
development and interaction work together, see:
Essential Components of Web Accessibility
User Agent Accessibility Guidelines (UAAG) Overview
Authoring Tool Accessibility Guidelines (ATAG) Overview

WCAG 2.0 Layers of Guidance
The individuals and organizations that use WCAG vary widely and include Web designers and developers, policy makers,
purchasing agents, teachers, and students. In order to meet the varying needs of this audience, several layers of guidance
are provided including overall principles, general guidelines, testable success criteria and a rich collection of sufficient
techniques, advisory techniques, and documented common failures with examples, resource links and code.
Principles - At the top are four principles that provide the foundation for Web accessibility: perceivable, operable,
understandable, and robust. See also Understanding the Four Principles of Accessibility.
Guidelines - Under the principles are guidelines. The 12 guidelines provide the basic goals that authors should work
toward in order to make content more accessible to users with different disabilities. The guidelines are not testable,
but provide the framework and overall objectives to help authors understand the success criteria and better
implement the techniques.
Success Criteria - For each guideline, testable success criteria are provided to allow WCAG 2.0 to be used where
requirements and conformance testing are necessary such as in design specification, purchasing, regulation, and
contractual agreements. In order to meet the needs of different groups and different situations, three levels of
conformance are defined: A (lowest), AA, and AAA (highest). Additional information on WCAG levels can be found in
Understanding Levels of Conformance.
Sufficient and Advisory Techniques - For each of the guidelines and success criteria in the WCAG 2.0 document
itself, the working group has also documented a wide variety of techniques. The techniques are informative and fall
into two categories: those that are sufficient for meeting the success criteria and those that are advisory. The
advisory techniques go beyond what is required by the individual success criteria and allow authors to better address
the guidelines. Some advisory techniques address accessibility barriers that are not covered by the testable success
criteria. Where common failures are known, these are also documented. See also Sufficient and Advisory

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

Techniques in Understanding WCAG 2.0.
All of these layers of guidance (principles, guidelines, success criteria, and sufficient and advisory techniques) work together
to provide guidance on how to make content more accessible. Authors are encouraged to view and apply all layers that they
are able to, including the advisory techniques, in order to best address the needs of the widest possible range of users.
Note that even content that conforms at the highest level (AAA) will not be accessible to individuals with all types, degrees,
or combinations of disability, particularly in the cognitive language and learning areas. Authors are encouraged to consider
the full range of techniques, including the advisory techniques, as well as to seek relevant advice about current best
practice to ensure that Web content is accessible, as far as possible, to this community. Metadata may assist users in
finding content most suitable for their needs.

WCAG 2.0 Supporting Documents
The WCAG 2.0 document is designed to meet the needs of those who need a stable, referenceable technical standard.
Other documents, called supporting documents, are based on the WCAG 2.0 document and address other important
purposes, including the ability to be updated to describe how WCAG would be applied with new technologies. Supporting
documents include:
1. How to Meet WCAG 2.0 - A customizable quick reference to WCAG 2.0 that includes all of the guidelines, success
criteria, and techniques for authors to use as they are developing and evaluating Web content.
2. Understanding WCAG 2.0 - A guide to understanding and implementing WCAG 2.0. There is a short
"Understanding" document for each guideline and success criterion in WCAG 2.0 as well as key topics.
3. Techniques for WCAG 2.0 - A collection of techniques and common failures, each in a separate document that
includes a description, examples, code and tests.
4. The WCAG 2.0 Documents - A diagram and description of how the technical documents are related and linked.
See Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Overview for a description of the WCAG 2.0 supporting material,
including education resources related to WCAG 2.0. Additional resources covering topics such as the business case for
Web accessibility, planning implementation to improve the accessibility of Web sites, and accessibility policies are listed in
WAI Resources.

Important Terms in WCAG 2.0
WCAG 2.0 includes three important terms that are different from WCAG 1.0. Each of these is introduced briefly below and
defined more fully in the glossary.
Web Page
It is important to note that, in this standard, the term "Web page" includes much more than static HTML pages. It
also includes the increasingly dynamic Web pages that are emerging on the Web, including "pages" that can
present entire virtual interactive communities. For example, the term "Web page" includes an immersive,
interactive movie-like experience found at a single URI. For more information, see Understanding "Web Page".
Programmatically Determined
Several success criteria require that content (or certain aspects of content) can be "programmatically determined."
This means that the content is delivered in such a way that user agents, including assistive technologies, can
extract and present this information to users in different modalities. For more information, see Understanding
Programmatically Determined.
Accessibility Supported
Using a technology in a way that is accessibility supported means that it works with assistive technologies (AT)
and the accessibility features of operating systems, browsers, and other user agents. Technology features can
only be relied upon to conform to WCAG 2.0 success criteria if they are used in a way that is "accessibility
supported". Technology features can be used in ways that are not accessibility supported (do not work with
assistive technologies, etc.) as long as they are not relied upon to conform to any success criterion (i.e., the same
information or functionality is also available another way that is supported).
The definition of "accessibility supported" is provided in the Appendix A: Glossary section of these guidelines. For
more information, see Understanding Accessibility Support.

This section is normative.

Principle 1: Perceivable - Information and user interface components must be
presentable to users in ways they can perceive.
Guideline 1.1 Text Alternatives: Provide text alternatives for any
non-text content so that it can be changed into other forms people
need, such as large print, braille, speech, symbols or simpler
language.

Understanding Guideline 1.1

1.1.1 Non-text Content: All non-text content that is presented to the user has a text
alternative that serves the equivalent purpose, except for the situations listed below. (Level A)
Controls, Input: If non-text content is a control or accepts user input, then it has a
name that describes its purpose. (Refer to Guideline 4.1 for additional requirements for
controls and content that accepts user input.)
Time-Based Media: If non-text content is time-based media, then text alternatives at
least provide descriptive identification of the non-text content. (Refer to Guideline 1.2 for
additional requirements for media.)
Test: If non-text content is a test or exercise that would be invalid if presented in text,
then text alternatives at least provide descriptive identification of the non-text content.
Sensory: If non-text content is primarily intended to create a specific sensory
experience, then text alternatives at least provide descriptive identification of the
non-text content.
CAPTCHA: If the purpose of non-text content is to confirm that content is being
accessed by a person rather than a computer, then text alternatives that identify and
describe the purpose of the non-text content are provided, and alternative forms of
CAPTCHA using output modes for different types of sensory perception are provided to
accommodate different disabilities.
Decoration, Formatting, Invisible: If non-text content is pure decoration, is used only
for visual formatting, or is not presented to users, then it is implemented in a way that it
can be ignored by assistive technology.

Guideline 1.2 Time-based Media: Provide alternatives for time-based
media.

1.4.7 Low or No Background Audio: For prerecorded audio-only content that (1) contains
primarily speech in the foreground, (2) is not an audio CAPTCHA or audio logo, and (3) is not
vocalization intended to be primarily musical expression such as singing or rapping, at least
one of the following is true: (Level AAA)
No Background: The audio does not contain background sounds.
Turn Off: The background sounds can be turned off.
20 dB: The background sounds are at least 20 decibels lower than the foreground
speech content, with the exception of occasional sounds that last for only one or two
seconds.

Principle 2: Operable - User interface components and navigation must be operable.
Guideline 2.1 Keyboard Accessible: Make all functionality available
from a keyboard.

2.1.1 Keyboard: All functionality of the content is operable through a keyboard interface
without requiring specific timings for individual keystrokes, except where the underlying
function requires input that depends on the path of the user's movement and not just the
endpoints. (Level A)
Note 1: This exception relates to the underlying function, not the input technique. For
example, if using handwriting to enter text, the input technique (handwriting) requires
path-dependent input but the underlying function (text input) does not.
Note 2: This does not forbid and should not discourage providing mouse input or other input
methods in addition to keyboard operation.

2.1.2 No Keyboard Trap: If keyboard focus can be moved to a component of the page using
a keyboard interface, then focus can be moved away from that component using only a
keyboard interface, and, if it requires more than unmodified arrow or tab keys or other
standard exit methods, the user is advised of the method for moving focus away. (Level A)

Understanding Guideline 2.2

2.2.1 Timing Adjustable: For each time limit that is set by the content, at least one of the
following is true: (Level A)
Turn off: The user is allowed to turn off the time limit before encountering it; or
Adjust: The user is allowed to adjust the time limit before encountering it over a wide
range that is at least ten times the length of the default setting; or
Extend: The user is warned before time expires and given at least 20 seconds to
extend the time limit with a simple action (for example, "press the space bar"), and the
user is allowed to extend the time limit at least ten times; or
Real-time Exception: The time limit is a required part of a real-time event (for example,
an auction), and no alternative to the time limit is possible; or
Essential Exception: The time limit is essential and extending it would invalidate the
activity; or
20 Hour Exception: The time limit is longer than 20 hours.

How to Meet 2.2.1
Understanding 2.2.1

Note: This success criterion helps ensure that users can complete tasks without unexpected
changes in content or context that are a result of a time limit. This success criterion should
be considered in conjunction with Success Criterion 3.2.1, which puts limits on changes of
content or context as a result of user action.
2.2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide: For moving, blinking, scrolling, or auto-updating information, all of
the following are true: (Level A)
Moving, blinking, scrolling: For any moving, blinking or scrolling information that (1)
starts automatically, (2) lasts more than five seconds, and (3) is presented in parallel
with other content, there is a mechanism for the user to pause, stop, or hide it unless
the movement, blinking, or scrolling is part of an activity where it is essential; and
Auto-updating: For any auto-updating information that (1) starts automatically and (2)
is presented in parallel with other content, there is a mechanism for the user to pause,
stop, or hide it or to control the frequency of the update unless the auto-updating is part
of an activity where it is essential.
Note 1: For requirements related to flickering or flashing content, refer to Guideline 2.3.
Note 2: Since any content that does not meet this success criterion can interfere with a
user's ability to use the whole page, all content on the Web page (whether it is used to meet
other success criteria or not) must meet this success criterion. See Conformance
Requirement 5: Non-Interference.
Note 3: Content that is updated periodically by software or that is streamed to the user agent
is not required to preserve or present information that is generated or received between the
initiation of the pause and resuming presentation, as this may not be technically possible,
and in many situations could be misleading to do so.

Note 4: An animation that occurs as part of a preload phase or similar situation can be
considered essential if interaction cannot occur during that phase for all users and if not
indicating progress could confuse users or cause them to think that content was frozen or
broken.

Conformance
This section is normative.
This section lists requirements for conformance to WCAG 2.0. It also gives information about how to make conformance
claims, which are optional. Finally, it describes what it means to be accessibility supported, since only accessibilitysupported ways of using technologies can be relied upon for conformance. Understanding Conformance includes further
explanation of the accessibility-supported concept.

Conformance Requirements
In order for a Web page to conform to WCAG 2.0, all of the following conformance requirements must be satisfied:
1. Conformance Level: One of the following levels of conformance is met in full.
Level A: For Level A conformance (the minimum level of conformance), the Web page satisfies all the Level A
Success Criteria, or a conforming alternate version is provided.
Level AA: For Level AA conformance, the Web page satisfies all the Level A and Level AA Success Criteria, or a
Level AA conforming alternate version is provided.
Level AAA: For Level AAA conformance, the Web page satisfies all the Level A, Level AA and Level AAA Success
Criteria, or a Level AAA conforming alternate version is provided.
Note 1: Although conformance can only be achieved at the stated levels, authors are encouraged to report (in their claim)
any progress toward meeting success criteria from all levels beyond the achieved level of conformance.
Note 2: It is not recommended that Level AAA conformance be required as a general policy for entire sites because it is
not possible to satisfy all Level AAA Success Criteria for some content.

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

14 of 28

2. Full pages: Conformance (and conformance level) is for full Web page(s) only, and cannot be achieved if part of a Web
page is excluded.
Note 1: For the purpose of determining conformance, alternatives to part of a page's content are considered part of the
page when the alternatives can be obtained directly from the page, e.g., a long description or an alternative presentation of
a video.
Note 2: Authors of Web pages that cannot conform due to content outside of the author's control may consider a
Statement of Partial Conformance.
3. Complete processes: When a Web page is one of a series of Web pages presenting a process (i.e., a sequence of
steps that need to be completed in order to accomplish an activity), all Web pages in the process conform at the specified
level or better. (Conformance is not possible at a particular level if any page in the process does not conform at that level or
better.)
Example: An online store has a series of pages that are used to select and purchase products. All pages in the series from
start to finish (checkout) conform in order for any page that is part of the process to conform.
4. Only Accessibility-Supported Ways of Using Technologies: Only accessibility-supported ways of using technologies
are relied upon to satisfy the success criteria. Any information or functionality that is provided in a way that is not
accessibility supported is also available in a way that is accessibility supported. (See Understanding accessibility support.)
5. Non-Interference: If technologies are used in a way that is not accessibility supported, or if they are used in a
non-conforming way, then they do not block the ability of users to access the rest of the page. In addition, the Web page as
a whole continues to meet the conformance requirements under each of the following conditions:
1. when any technology that is not relied upon is turned on in a user agent,
2. when any technology that is not relied upon is turned off in a user agent, and
3. when any technology that is not relied upon is not supported by a user agent
In addition, the following success criteria apply to all content on the page, including content that is not otherwise relied upon
to meet conformance, because failure to meet them could interfere with any use of the page:
1.4.2 - Audio Control,
2.1.2 - No Keyboard Trap,
2.3.1 - Three Flashes or Below Threshold, and
2.2.2 - Pause, Stop, Hide.
Note: If a page cannot conform (for example, a conformance test page or an example page), it cannot be included in the
scope of conformance or in a conformance claim.
For more information, including examples, see Understanding Conformance Requirements.

Conformance Claims (Optional)
Conformance is defined only for Web pages. However, a conformance claim may be made to cover one page, a series of
pages, or multiple related Web pages.
Required Components of a Conformance Claim
Conformance claims are not required. Authors can conform to WCAG 2.0 without making a claim. However, if a
conformance claim is made, then the conformance claim must include the following information:
1. Date of the claim
2. Guidelines title, version and URI "Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 at http://www.w3.org/TR/2008
/REC-WCAG20-20081211/"
3. Conformance level satisfied: (Level A, AA or AAA)
4. A concise description of the Web pages, such as a list of URIs for which the claim is made, including whether
subdomains are included in the claim.
Note 1: The Web pages may be described by list or by an expression that describes all of the URIs included in the
claim.
Note 2: Web-based products that do not have a URI prior to installation on the customer's Web site may have a
statement that the product would conform when installed.
5. A list of the Web content technologies relied upon.

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

15 of 28

Note: If a conformance logo is used, it would constitute a claim and must be accompanied by the required components of a
conformance claim listed above.
Optional Components of a Conformance Claim
In addition to the required components of a conformance claim above, consider providing additional information to assist
users. Recommended additional information includes:
A list of success criteria beyond the level of conformance claimed that have been met. This information should be
provided in a form that users can use, preferably machine-readable metadata.
A list of the specific technologies that are "used but not relied upon."
A list of user agents, including assistive technologies that were used to test the content.
Information about any additional steps taken that go beyond the success criteria to enhance accessibility.
A machine-readable metadata version of the list of specific technologies that are relied upon.
A machine-readable metadata version of the conformance claim.
Note 1: Refer to Understanding Conformance Claims for more information and example conformance claims.
Note 2: Refer to Understanding Metadata for more information about the use of metadata in conformance claims.

Statement of Partial Conformance - Third Party Content
Sometimes, Web pages are created that will later have additional content added to them. For example, an email program, a
blog, an article that allows users to add comments, or applications supporting user-contributed content. Another example
would be a page, such as a portal or news site, composed of content aggregated from multiple contributors, or sites that
automatically insert content from other sources over time, such as when advertisements are inserted dynamically.
In these cases, it is not possible to know at the time of original posting what the uncontrolled content of the pages will be. It
is important to note that the uncontrolled content can affect the accessibility of the controlled content as well. Two options
are available:
1. A determination of conformance can be made based on best knowledge. If a page of this type is monitored and
repaired (non-conforming content is removed or brought into conformance) within two business days, then a
determination or claim of conformance can be made since, except for errors in externally contributed content which
are corrected or removed when encountered, the page conforms. No conformance claim can be made if it is not
possible to monitor or correct non-conforming content;
OR
2. A "statement of partial conformance" may be made that the page does not conform, but could conform if certain
parts were removed. The form of that statement would be, "This page does not conform, but would conform to
WCAG 2.0 at level X if the following parts from uncontrolled sources were removed." In addition, the following would
also be true of uncontrolled content that is described in the statement of partial conformance:
a. It is not content that is under the author's control.
b. It is described in a way that users can identify (e.g., they cannot be described as "all parts that we do not
control" unless they are clearly marked as such.)

Statement of Partial Conformance - Language
A "statement of partial conformance due to language" may be made when the page does not conform, but would conform if
accessibility support existed for (all of) the language(s) used on the page. The form of that statement would be, "This page
does not conform, but would conform to WCAG 2.0 at level X if accessibility support existed for the following language(s):"

Appendix A: Glossary
This section is normative.
abbreviation
shortened form of a word, phrase, or name where the abbreviation has not become part of the language
Note 1: This includes initialisms and acronyms where:
1. initialisms are shortened forms of a name or phrase made from the initial letters of words or syllables
contained in that name or phrase

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

16 of 28
Note 1: Not defined in all languages.
Example 1: SNCF is a French initialism that contains the initial letters of the Société Nationale des Chemins
de Fer, the French national railroad.
Example 2: ESP is an initialism for extrasensory perception.

2. acronyms are abbreviated forms made from the initial letters or parts of other words (in a name or phrase)
which may be pronounced as a word
Example: NOAA is an acronym made from the initial letters of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration in the United States.
Note 2: Some companies have adopted what used to be an initialism as their company name. In these cases, the
new name of the company is the letters (for example, Ecma) and the word is no longer considered an abbreviation.
accessibility supported
supported by users' assistive technologies as well as the accessibility features in browsers and other user agents
To qualify as an accessibility-supported use of a Web content technology (or feature of a technology), both 1 and 2
must be satisfied for a Web content technology (or feature):
1. The way that the Web content technology is used must be supported by users' assistive technology
(AT). This means that the way that the technology is used has been tested for interoperability with users'
assistive technology in the human language(s) of the content,
AND
2. The Web content technology must have accessibility-supported user agents that are available to users.
This means that at least one of the following four statements is true:
a. The technology is supported natively in widely-distributed user agents that are also accessibility
supported (such as HTML and CSS);
OR
b. The technology is supported in a widely-distributed plug-in that is also accessibility supported;
OR
c. The content is available in a closed environment, such as a university or corporate network, where the
user agent required by the technology and used by the organization is also accessibility supported;
OR
d. The user agent(s) that support the technology are accessibility supported and are available for
download or purchase in a way that:
does not cost a person with a disability any more than a person without a disability and
is as easy to find and obtain for a person with a disability as it is for a person without disabilities.
Note 1: The WCAG Working group and the W3C do not specify which or how much support by assistive technologies
there must be for a particular use of a Web technology in order for it to be classified as accessibility supported. (See
Level of Assistive Technology Support Needed for "Accessibility Support".)
Note 2: Web technologies can be used in ways that are not accessibility supported as long as they are not relied
upon and the page as a whole meets the conformance requirements, including Conformance Requirement 4: Only
Accessibility-Supported Ways of Using Technologies and Conformance Requirement 5: Non-Interference, are met.
Note 3: When a Web Technology is used in a way that is "accessibility supported," it does not imply that the entire
technology or all uses of the technology are supported. Most technologies, including HTML, lack support for at least
one feature or use. Pages conform to WCAG only if the uses of the technology that are accessibility supported can
be relied upon to meet WCAG requirements.
Note 4: When citing Web content technologies that have multiple versions, the version(s) supported should be
specified.
Note 5: One way for authors to locate uses of a technology that are accessibility supported would be to consult
compilations of uses that are documented to be accessibility supported. (See Understanding Accessibility-Supported
Web Technology Uses.) Authors, companies, technology vendors, or others may document accessibility-supported
ways of using Web content technologies. However, all ways of using technologies in the documentation would need
to meet the definition of accessibility-supported Web content technologies above.
alternative for time-based media
document including correctly sequenced text descriptions of time-based visual and auditory information and providing
a means for achieving the outcomes of any time-based interaction
Note: A screenplay used to create the synchronized media content would meet this definition only if it was corrected

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

17 of 28

to accurately represent the final synchronized media after editing.
ambiguous to users in general
the purpose cannot be determined from the link and all information of the Web page presented to the user
simultaneously with the link (i.e., readers without disabilities would not know what a link would do until they activated
it)
Example: The word guava in the following sentence "One of the notable exports is guava" is a link. The link could
lead to a definition of guava, a chart listing the quantity of guava exported or a photograph of people harvesting
guava. Until the link is activated, all readers are unsure and the person with a disability is not at any disadvantage.
ASCII art
picture created by a spatial arrangement of characters or glyphs (typically from the 95 printable characters defined by
ASCII).
assistive technology (as used in this document)
hardware and/or software that acts as a user agent, or along with a mainstream user agent, to provide functionality to
meet the requirements of users with disabilities that go beyond those offered by mainstream user agents
Note 1: functionality provided by assistive technology includes alternative presentations (e.g., as synthesized speech
or magnified content), alternative input methods (e.g., voice), additional navigation or orientation mechanisms, and
content transformations (e.g., to make tables more accessible).
Note 2: Assistive technologies often communicate data and messages with mainstream user agents by using and
monitoring APIs.
Note 3: The distinction between mainstream user agents and assistive technologies is not absolute. Many
mainstream user agents provide some features to assist individuals with disabilities. The basic difference is that
mainstream user agents target broad and diverse audiences that usually include people with and without disabilities.
Assistive technologies target narrowly defined populations of users with specific disabilities. The assistance provided
by an assistive technology is more specific and appropriate to the needs of its target users. The mainstream user
agent may provide important functionality to assistive technologies like retrieving Web content from program objects
or parsing markup into identifiable bundles.
Example: Assistive technologies that are important in the context of this document include the following:
screen magnifiers, and other visual reading assistants, which are used by people with visual, perceptual and
physical print disabilities to change text font, size, spacing, color, synchronization with speech, etc. in order to
improve the visual readability of rendered text and images;
screen readers, which are used by people who are blind to read textual information through synthesized
speech or braille;
text-to-speech software, which is used by some people with cognitive, language, and learning disabilities to
convert text into synthetic speech;
speech recognition software, which may be used by people who have some physical disabilities;
alternative keyboards, which are used by people with certain physical disabilities to simulate the keyboard
(including alternate keyboards that use head pointers, single switches, sip/puff and other special input
devices.);
alternative pointing devices, which are used by people with certain physical disabilities to simulate mouse
pointing and button activations.
audio
the technology of sound reproduction
Note: Audio can be created synthetically (including speech synthesis), recorded from real world sounds, or both.
audio description
narration added to the soundtrack to describe important visual details that cannot be understood from the main
soundtrack alone
Note 1: Audio description of video provides information about actions, characters, scene changes, on-screen text,
and other visual content.
Note 2: In standard audio description, narration is added during existing pauses in dialogue. (See also extended
audio description.)
Note 3: Where all of the video information is already provided in existing audio, no additional audio description is
necessary.

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

18 of 28

Note 4: Also called "video description" and "descriptive narration."
audio-only
a time-based presentation that contains only audio (no video and no interaction)
blinking
switch back and forth between two visual states in a way that is meant to draw attention
Note: See also flash. It is possible for something to be large enough and blink brightly enough at the right frequency
to be also classified as a flash.
blocks of text
more than one sentence of text
CAPTCHA
initialism for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart"
Note 1: CAPTCHA tests often involve asking the user to type in text that is displayed in an obscured image or audio
file.
Note 2: A Turing test is any system of tests designed to differentiate a human from a computer. It is named after
famed computer scientist Alan Turing. The term was coined by researchers at Carnegie Mellon University.
[CAPTCHA]
captions
synchronized visual and/or text alternative for both speech and non-speech audio information needed to understand
the media content
Note 1: Captions are similar to dialogue-only subtitles except captions convey not only the content of spoken
dialogue, but also equivalents for non-dialogue audio information needed to understand the program content,
including sound effects, music, laughter, speaker identification and location.
Note 2: Closed Captions are equivalents that can be turned on and off with some players.
Note 3: Open Captions are any captions that cannot be turned off. For example, if the captions are visual equivalent
images of text embedded in video.
Note 4: Captions should not obscure or obstruct relevant information in the video.
Note 5: In some countries, captions are called subtitles.
Note 6: Audio descriptions can be, but do not need to be, captioned since they are descriptions of information that is
already presented visually.
changes of context
major changes in the content of the Web page that, if made without user awareness, can disorient users who are not
able to view the entire page simultaneously
Changes in context include changes of:
1. user agent;
2. viewport;
3. focus;
4. content that changes the meaning of the Web page.
Note: A change of content is not always a change of context. Changes in content, such as an expanding outline,
dynamic menu, or a tab control do not necessarily change the context, unless they also change one of the above
(e.g., focus).
Example: Opening a new window, moving focus to a different component, going to a new page (including anything
that would look to a user as if they had moved to a new page) or significantly re-arranging the content of a page are
examples of changes of context.
conformance
satisfying all the requirements of a given standard, guideline or specification
conforming alternate version
version that
1. conforms at the designated level, and
2. provides all of the same information and functionality in the same human language, and
3. is as up to date as the non-conforming content, and

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

19 of 28

4. for which at least one of the following is true:
a. the conforming version can be reached from the non-conforming page via an accessibility-supported
mechanism, or
b. the non-conforming version can only be reached from the conforming version, or
c. the non-conforming version can only be reached from a conforming page that also provides a
mechanism to reach the conforming version
Note 1: In this definition, "can only be reached" means that there is some mechanism, such as a conditional redirect,
that prevents a user from "reaching" (loading) the non-conforming page unless the user had just come from the
conforming version.
Note 2: The alternate version does not need to be matched page for page with the original (e.g., the conforming
alternate version may consist of multiple pages).
Note 3: If multiple language versions are available, then conforming alternate versions are required for each
language offered.
Note 4: Alternate versions may be provided to accommodate different technology environments or user groups. Each
version should be as conformant as possible. One version would need to be fully conformant in order to meet
conformance requirement 1.
Note 5: The conforming alternative version does not need to reside within the scope of conformance, or even on the
same Web site, as long as it is as freely available as the non-conforming version.
Note 6: Alternate versions should not be confused with supplementary content, which support the original page and
enhance comprehension.
Note 7: Setting user preferences within the content to produce a conforming version is an acceptable mechanism for
reaching another version as long as the method used to set the preferences is accessibility supported.
See Understanding Conforming Alternate Versions
content (Web content)
information and sensory experience to be communicated to the user by means of a user agent, including code or
markup that defines the content's structure, presentation, and interactions
context-sensitive help
help text that provides information related to the function currently being performed
Note: Clear labels can act as context-sensitive help.
contrast ratio
(L1 + 0.05) / (L2 + 0.05), where
L1 is the relative luminance of the lighter of the colors, and
L2 is the relative luminance of the darker of the colors.
Note 1: Contrast ratios can range from 1 to 21 (commonly written 1:1 to 21:1).
Note 2: Because authors do not have control over user settings as to how text is rendered (for example font
smoothing or anti-aliasing), the contrast ratio for text can be evaluated with anti-aliasing turned off.
Note 3: For the purpose of Success Criteria 1.4.3 and 1.4.6, contrast is measured with respect to the specified
background over which the text is rendered in normal usage. If no background color is specified, then white is
assumed.
Note 4: Background color is the specified color of content over which the text is to be rendered in normal usage. It is
a failure if no background color is specified when the text color is specified, because the user's default background
color is unknown and cannot be evaluated for sufficient contrast. For the same reason, it is a failure if no text color is
specified when a background color is specified.
Note 5: When there is a border around the letter, the border can add contrast and would be used in calculating the
contrast between the letter and its background. A narrow border around the letter would be used as the letter. A wide
border around the letter that fills in the inner details of the letters acts as a halo and would be considered
background.
Note 6: WCAG conformance should be evaluated for color pairs specified in the content that an author would expect
to appear adjacent in typical presentation. Authors need not consider unusual presentations, such as color changes
made by the user agent, except where caused by authors' code.
correct reading sequence
any sequence where words and paragraphs are presented in an order that does not change the meaning of the

processes and outcomes achievable through user action
general flash and red flash thresholds
a flash or rapidly changing image sequence is below the threshold (i.e., content passes) if any of the following are
true:
1. there are no more than three general flashes and / or no more than three red flashes within any one-second
period; or
2. the combined area of flashes occurring concurrently occupies no more than a total of .006 steradians within
any 10 degree visual field on the screen (25% of any 10 degree visual field on the screen) at typical viewing
distance
where:
A general flash is defined as a pair of opposing changes in relative luminance of 10% or more of the
maximum relative luminance where the relative luminance of the darker image is below 0.80; and where "a pair
of opposing changes" is an increase followed by a decrease, or a decrease followed by an increase, and
A red flash is defined as any pair of opposing transitions involving a saturated red.
Exception: Flashing that is a fine, balanced, pattern such as white noise or an alternating checkerboard pattern with
"squares" smaller than 0.1 degree (of visual field at typical viewing distance) on a side does not violate the thresholds.
Note 1: For general software or Web content, using a 341 x 256 pixel rectangle anywhere on the displayed screen
area when the content is viewed at 1024 x 768 pixels will provide a good estimate of a 10 degree visual field for
standard screen sizes and viewing distances (e.g., 15-17 inch screen at 22-26 inches). (Higher resolutions displays
showing the same rendering of the content yield smaller and safer images so it is lower resolutions that are used to
define the thresholds.)
Note 2: A transition is the change in relative luminance (or relative luminance/color for red flashing) between
adjacent peaks and valleys in a plot of relative luminance (or relative luminance/color for red flashing) measurement
against time. A flash consists of two opposing transitions.
Note 3: The current working definition in the field for "pair of opposing transitions involving a saturated red" is
where, for either or both states involved in each transition, R/(R+ G + B) >= 0.8, and the change in the value of
(R-G-B)x320 is > 20 (negative values of (R-G-B)x320 are set to zero) for both transitions. R, G, B values range from
0-1 as specified in “relative luminance” definition. [HARDING-BINNIE]
Note 4: Tools are available that will carry out analysis from video screen capture. However, no tool is necessary to
evaluate for this condition if flashing is less than or equal to 3 flashes in any one second. Content automatically
passes (see #1 and #2 above).
human language
language that is spoken, written or signed (through visual or tactile means) to communicate with humans
Note: See also sign language.
idiom

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

21 of 28

phrase whose meaning cannot be deduced from the meaning of the individual words and the specific words cannot be
changed without losing the meaning
Note: idioms cannot be translated directly, word for word, without losing their (cultural or language-dependent)
meaning.
Example 1: In English, "spilling the beans" means "revealing a secret." However, "knocking over the beans" or
"spilling the vegetables" does not mean the same thing.
Example 2: In Japanese, the phrase "さじを投げる" literally translates into "he throws a spoon," but it means that there
is nothing he can do and finally he gives up.
Example 3: In Dutch, "Hij ging met de kippen op stok" literally translates into "He went to roost with the chickens,"
but it means that he went to bed early.
image of text
text that has been rendered in a non-text form (e.g., an image) in order to achieve a particular visual effect
Note: This does not include text that is part of a picture that contains significant other visual content.
Example: A person's name on a nametag in a photograph.
informative
for information purposes and not required for conformance
Note: Content required for conformance is referred to as "normative."
input error
information provided by the user that is not accepted
Note: This includes:
1. Information that is required by the Web page but omitted by the user
2. Information that is provided by the user but that falls outside the required data format or values
jargon
words used in a particular way by people in a particular field
Example: The word StickyKeys is jargon from the field of assistive technology/accessibility.
keyboard interface
interface used by software to obtain keystroke input
Note 1: A keyboard interface allows users to provide keystroke input to programs even if the native technology does
not contain a keyboard.
Example: A touchscreen PDA has a keyboard interface built into its operating system as well as a connector for
external keyboards. Applications on the PDA can use the interface to obtain keyboard input either from an external
keyboard or from other applications that provide simulated keyboard output, such as handwriting interpreters or
speech-to-text applications with "keyboard emulation" functionality.
Note 2: Operation of the application (or parts of the application) through a keyboard-operated mouse emulator, such
as MouseKeys, does not qualify as operation through a keyboard interface because operation of the program is
through its pointing device interface, not through its keyboard interface.
label
text or other component with a text alternative that is presented to a user to identify a component within Web content
Note 1: A label is presented to all users whereas the name may be hidden and only exposed by assistive technology.
In many (but not all) cases the name and the label are the same.
Note 2: The term label is not limited to the label element in HTML.
large scale (text)
with at least 18 point or 14 point bold or font size that would yield equivalent size for Chinese, Japanese and Korean
(CJK) fonts
Note 1: Fonts with extraordinarily thin strokes or unusual features and characteristics that reduce the familiarity of
their letter forms are harder to read, especially at lower contrast levels.
Note 2: Font size is the size when the content is delivered. It does not include resizing that may be done by a user.
Note 3: The actual size of the character that a user sees is dependent both on the author-defined size and the user's
display or user-agent settings. For many mainstream body text fonts, 14 and 18 point is roughly equivalent to 1.2 and

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

22 of 28

1.5 em or to 120% or 150% of the default size for body text (assuming that the body font is 100%), but authors would
need to check this for the particular fonts in use. When fonts are defined in relative units, the actual point size is
calculated by the user agent for display. The point size should be obtained from the user agent, or calculated based
on font metrics as the user agent does, when evaluating this success criterion. Users who have low vision would be
responsible for choosing appropriate settings.
Note 4: When using text without specifying the font size, the smallest font size used on major browsers for
unspecified text would be a reasonable size to assume for the font. If a level 1 heading is rendered in 14pt bold or
higher on major browsers, then it would be reasonable to assume it is large text. Relative scaling can be calculated
from the default sizes in a similar fashion.
Note 5: The 18 and 14 point sizes for roman texts are taken from the minimum size for large print (14pt) and the
larger standard font size (18pt). For other fonts such as CJK languages, the "equivalent" sizes would be the
minimum large print size used for those languages and the next larger standard large print size.
legal commitments
transactions where the person incurs a legally binding obligation or benefit
Example: A marriage license, a stock trade (financial and legal), a will, a loan, adoption, signing up for the army, a
contract of any type, etc.
link purpose
nature of the result obtained by activating a hyperlink
live
information captured from a real-world event and transmitted to the receiver with no more than a broadcast delay
Note 1: A broadcast delay is a short (usually automated) delay, for example used in order to give the broadcaster
time to queue or censor the audio (or video) feed, but not sufficient to allow significant editing.
Note 2: If information is completely computer generated, it is not live.
lower secondary education level
the two or three year period of education that begins after completion of six years of school and ends nine years after
the beginning of primary education
Note: This definition is based on the International Standard Classification of Education [UNESCO].
mechanism
process or technique for achieving a result
Note 1: The mechanism may be explicitly provided in the content, or may be relied upon to be provided by either the
platform or by user agents, including assistive technologies.
Note 2: The mechanism needs to meet all success criteria for the conformance level claimed.
media alternative for text
media that presents no more information than is already presented in text (directly or via text alternatives)
Note: A media alternative for text is provided for those who benefit from alternate representations of text. Media
alternatives for text may be audio-only, video-only (including sign-language video), or audio-video.
name
text by which software can identify a component within Web content to the user
Note 1: The name may be hidden and only exposed by assistive technology, whereas a label is presented to all
users. In many (but not all) cases, the label and the name are the same.
Note 2: This is unrelated to the name attribute in HTML.
navigated sequentially
navigated in the order defined for advancing focus (from one element to the next) using a keyboard interface
non-text content
any content that is not a sequence of characters that can be programmatically determined or where the sequence is
not expressing something in human language
Note: This includes ASCII Art (which is a pattern of characters), emoticons, leetspeak (which uses character
substitution), and images representing text
normative
required for conformance

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

23 of 28

Note 1: One may conform in a variety of well-defined ways to this document.
Note 2: Content identified as "informative" or "non-normative" is never required for conformance.
on a full-screen window
on the most common sized desktop/laptop display with the viewport maximized
Note: Since people generally keep their computers for several years, it is best not to rely on the latest desktop/laptop
display resolutions but to consider the common desktop/laptop display resolutions over the course of several years
when making this evaluation.
paused
stopped by user request and not resumed until requested by user
prerecorded
information that is not live
presentation
rendering of the content in a form to be perceived by users
primary education level
six year time period that begins between the ages of five and seven, possibly without any previous education
Note: This definition is based on the International Standard Classification of Education [UNESCO].
process
series of user actions where each action is required in order to complete an activity
Example 1: Successful use of a series of Web pages on a shopping site requires users to view alternative products,
prices and offers, select products, submit an order, provide shipping information and provide payment information.
Example 2: An account registration page requires successful completion of a Turing test before the registration form
can be accessed.
programmatically determined (programmatically determinable)
determined by software from author-supplied data provided in a way that different user agents, including assistive
technologies, can extract and present this information to users in different modalities
Example 1: Determined in a markup language from elements and attributes that are accessed directly by commonly
available assistive technology.
Example 2: Determined from technology-specific data structures in a non-markup language and exposed to assistive
technology via an accessibility API that is supported by commonly available assistive technology.
programmatically determined link context
additional information that can be programmatically determined from relationships with a link, combined with the link
text, and presented to users in different modalities
Example: In HTML, information that is programmatically determinable from a link in English includes text that is in the
same paragraph, list, or table cell as the link or in a table header cell that is associated with the table cell that
contains the link.
Note: Since screen readers interpret punctuation, they can also provide the context from the current sentence, when
the focus is on a link in that sentence.
programmatically set
set by software using methods that are supported by user agents, including assistive technologies
pure decoration
serving only an aesthetic purpose, providing no information, and having no functionality
Note: Text is only purely decorative if the words can be rearranged or substituted without changing their purpose.
Example: The cover page of a dictionary has random words in very light text in the background.
real-time event
event that a) occurs at the same time as the viewing and b) is not completely generated by the content
Example 1: A Webcast of a live performance (occurs at the same time as the viewing and is not prerecorded).
Example 2: An on-line auction with people bidding (occurs at the same time as the viewing).
Example 3: Live humans interacting in a virtual world using avatars (is not completely generated by the content and
occurs at the same time as the viewing).

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

24 of 28

relationships
meaningful associations between distinct pieces of content
relative luminance
the relative brightness of any point in a colorspace, normalized to 0 for darkest black and 1 for lightest white
Note 1: For the sRGB colorspace, the relative luminance of a color is defined as L = 0.2126 * R + 0.7152 * G +
0.0722 * B where R, G and B are defined as:
if RsRGB <= 0.03928 then R = RsRGB/12.92 else R = ((RsRGB+0.055)/1.055) ^ 2.4
if GsRGB <= 0.03928 then G = GsRGB/12.92 else G = ((GsRGB+0.055)/1.055) ^ 2.4
if BsRGB <= 0.03928 then B = BsRGB/12.92 else B = ((BsRGB+0.055)/1.055) ^ 2.4
and RsRGB, GsRGB, and BsRGB are defined as:
RsRGB = R8bit/255
GsRGB = G8bit/255
BsRGB = B8bit/255
The "^" character is the exponentiation operator. (Formula taken from [sRGB] and [IEC-4WD]).
Note 2: Almost all systems used today to view Web content assume sRGB encoding. Unless it is known that another
color space will be used to process and display the content, authors should evaluate using sRGB colorspace. If
using other color spaces, see Understanding Success Criterion 1.4.3.
Note 3: If dithering occurs after delivery, then the source color value is used. For colors that are dithered at the
source, the average values of the colors that are dithered should be used (average R, average G, and average B).
Note 4: Tools are available that automatically do the calculations when testing contrast and flash.
Note 5: A MathML version of the relative luminance definition is available.
relied upon (technologies that are)
the content would not conform if that technology is turned off or is not supported
role
text or number by which software can identify the function of a component within Web content
Example: A number that indicates whether an image functions as a hyperlink, command button, or check box.
same functionality
same result when used
Example: A submit "search" button on one Web page and a "find" button on another Web page may both have a field
to enter a term and list topics in the Web site related to the term submitted. In this case, they would have the same
functionality but would not be labeled consistently.
same relative order
same position relative to other items
Note: Items are considered to be in the same relative order even if other items are inserted or removed from the
original order. For example, expanding navigation menus may insert an additional level of detail or a secondary
navigation section may be inserted into the reading order.
satisfies a success criterion
the success criterion does not evaluate to 'false' when applied to the page
section
A self-contained portion of written content that deals with one or more related topics or thoughts
Note: A section may consist of one or more paragraphs and include graphics, tables, lists and sub-sections.
set of Web pages
collection of Web pages that share a common purpose and that are created by the same author, group or organization
Note: Different language versions would be considered different sets of Web pages.
sign language
a language using combinations of movements of the hands and arms, facial expressions, or body positions to convey
meaning
sign language interpretation

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

25 of 28

translation of one language, generally a spoken language, into a sign language
Note: True sign languages are independent languages that are unrelated to the spoken language(s) of the same
country or region.
specific sensory experience
a sensory experience that is not purely decorative and does not primarily convey important information or perform a
function
Example: Examples include a performance of a flute solo, works of visual art etc.
structure
1. The way the parts of a Web page are organized in relation to each other; and
2. The way a collection of Web pages is organized
supplemental content
additional content that illustrates or clarifies the primary content
Example 1: An audio version of a Web page.
Example 2: An illustration of a complex process.
Example 3: A paragraph summarizing the major outcomes and recommendations made in a research study.
synchronized media
audio or video synchronized with another format for presenting information and/or with time-based interactive
components, unless the media is a media alternative for text that is clearly labeled as such
technology (Web content)
mechanism for encoding instructions to be rendered, played or executed by user agents
Note 1: As used in these guidelines "Web Technology" and the word "technology" (when used alone) both refer to
Web Content Technologies.
Note 2: Web content technologies may include markup languages, data formats, or programming languages that
authors may use alone or in combination to create end-user experiences that range from static Web pages to
synchronized media presentations to dynamic Web applications.
Example: Some common examples of Web content technologies include HTML, CSS, SVG, PNG, PDF, Flash, and
JavaScript.
text
sequence of characters that can be programmatically determined, where the sequence is expressing something in
human language
text alternative
Text that is programmatically associated with non-text content or referred to from text that is programmatically
associated with non-text content. Programmatically associated text is text whose location can be programmatically
determined from the non-text content.
Example: An image of a chart is described in text in the paragraph after the chart. The short text alternative for the
chart indicates that a description follows.
Note: Refer to Understanding Text Alternatives for more information.
used in an unusual or restricted way
words used in such a way that requires users to know exactly which definition to apply in order to understand the
content correctly
Example: The term "gig" means something different if it occurs in a discussion of music concerts than it does in
article about computer hard drive space, but the appropriate definition can be determined from context. By contrast,
the word "text" is used in a very specific way in WCAG 2.0, so a definition is supplied in the glossary.
user agent
any software that retrieves and presents Web content for users
Example: Web browsers, media players, plug-ins, and other programs — including assistive technologies — that
help in retrieving, rendering, and interacting with Web content.
user-controllable
data that is intended to be accessed by users

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/

26 of 28

Note: This does not refer to such things as Internet logs and search engine monitoring data.
Example: Name and address fields for a user's account.
user interface component
a part of the content that is perceived by users as a single control for a distinct function
Note 1: Multiple user interface components may be implemented as a single programmatic element. Components
here is not tied to programming techniques, but rather to what the user perceives as separate controls.
Note 2: User interface components include form elements and links as well as components generated by scripts.
Example: An applet has a "control" that can be used to move through content by line or page or random access.
Since each of these would need to have a name and be settable independently, they would each be a "user interface
component."
video
the technology of moving or sequenced pictures or images
Note: Video can be made up of animated or photographic images, or both.
video-only
a time-based presentation that contains only video (no audio and no interaction)
viewport
object in which the user agent presents content
Note 1: The user agent presents content through one or more viewports. Viewports include windows, frames,
loudspeakers, and virtual magnifying glasses. A viewport may contain another viewport (e.g., nested frames).
Interface components created by the user agent such as prompts, menus, and alerts are not viewports.
Note 2: This definition is based on User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 Glossary.
visually customized
the font, size, color, and background can be set
Web page
a non-embedded resource obtained from a single URI using HTTP plus any other resources that are used in the
rendering or intended to be rendered together with it by a user agent
Note 1: Although any "other resources" would be rendered together with the primary resource, they would not
necessarily be rendered simultaneously with each other.
Note 2: For the purposes of conformance with these guidelines, a resource must be "non-embedded" within the
scope of conformance to be considered a Web page.
Example 1: A Web resource including all embedded images and media.
Example 2: A Web mail program built using Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX). The program lives entirely at
http://example.com/mail, but includes an inbox, a contacts area and a calendar. Links or buttons are provided that
cause the inbox, contacts, or calendar to display, but do not change the URI of the page as a whole.
Example 3: A customizable portal site, where users can choose content to display from a set of different content
modules.
Example 4: When you enter "http://shopping.example.com/" in your browser, you enter a movie-like interactive
shopping environment where you visually move around in a store dragging products off of the shelves around you
and into a visual shopping cart in front of you. Clicking on a product causes it to be demonstrated with a specification
sheet floating alongside. This might be a single-page Web site or just one page within a Web site.
