Non-text equivalents of text (e.g., icons, pre-recorded speech, or a video
of a
person translating the text into sign language) can make documents
accessible to
people who may have difficulty accessing written text, including many
individuals
with cognitive disabilities, learning disabilities, and deafness. Non-text
equivalents of
text can also be helpful to non-readers. An auditory description [p. 28] is
an example
of a non-text equivalent of visual information. An auditory description of a
multimedia
presentation¹s visual track benefits people who cannot see the visual
information.
