Text Customization is a serious issue for sighted people with print disabilities. I have created the ability to develop custom style sheets for end users. Many of us thought that SC 1.3.1 gave us access to significant text customization, but WCAG WG ruled that it did not apply to customizing text. The 200% text-only enlargement criteria, while better than nothing, does not even address the minimum enlargement needs of people with the most moderate low vision that is classified as being a disability. Zoom is not accessibility support, it is just a work around for inaccessibility. Until now ordinary people could not choose their preferred style settings. Now we have created that possibility (my absences over the past year). I will show it off at CSUN Wednesday 10:40. There are many wonderful presentations, but If you want to learn about disability issues of low vision you might want to attend. Wayne
