介绍 to Using the 可访问性检查器 in 微软文字处理软件

Microsoft Office has a built-in accessibility checker that will identify certain elements that are inaccessible 和 provide simple steps on how to remediate those issues.

The resources on this page consist of a video tutorial 和 text directions for using the accessibility checker in 微软文字处理软件.

免责声明:

The Microsoft Office 可访问性检查器 does not catch all accessibility issues. 例如, headings are a large part of creating accessible documents, but a lack of headings will not appear on the accessibility checker.
