Headings and Tags

Decorative graphic of a circuit

decorative icon graphic of Html code for HeadingStructuring the data in your documents, also known as Headings or Tagging, simply is organizing the hierarchy or layout.  This is highly recommended. This structuring is not visibly displayed, however it is used by assistive technology, such as screen readers to understand the layout of the content.

Structuring Documents

There are many preformatted options for presenting content using Microsoft Word, Powerpoint and Excel. Under the Styles section you can select different Headings to make stylistic changes to the text. You will still maintain flexibility to alter the font type, text color, text size, spacing, etc.

Title – This is the Title of the document

Subtitle1 – Heading 1 - 1st paragraph of the document

Normal Text for the paragraph

Subtitle2 – Heading 1 - 2nd paragraph of the document

Normal text for the paragraph

 

Templates are generally made accessible with little formatting required. Whenever there is a structured layout provided it is best to take advantage of it.  Another example of structured data would be lists. Under Paragraph settings in Microsoft Word and Powerpoint, always use the predefined numbered and bulleted list function and your list will be accessible.

Listing Content

Many content editors have paragraph style settings that not only save you time by not having to manually create an effect, but also create accessible content that is compatible with screen readers. For this reason it is recommended to use these built-in style options whenever possible. Ordered and Unordered Lists are examples of these settings.

Example of a "manual" list using hyphens and spaces (not recommended):

My favorite colors are:

  - Yellow

  - Green

  - Red

Example of a list using the Unordered List tool (recommended):

My favorite colors are:

  • Yellow
  • Green
  • Red
