Use headings, lists, and consistent structure. Use CSS for layout and consistent style where possible. * Graphs & charts. Summarize or use an attribute linking to a long textual description. * Scripts, applets, & plug-ins. Provide alternative content in case active features are inaccessible or unsupported. * Frames. Use an alternative element with meaningful titles. * Tables. Make line-by-line reading sensible. Summarize. * Check your work. Validate. Use tools, checklists, and guidelines developed for the applications you use. The above generalizes the quick tips to remove their dependence on HTML (or XML) -- they should apply to any markup language. Not clear how they apply to PDF.
