Hi Guys, so my homework was to fill out section “Adding Alternative Media" How does this look for a use-case? Adding Alternative Media As a publisher of accessible content, I need to add content such as a braille style sheet, image descriptions, or video captioning (text / descriptive audio) to a PWP previously published by a third party. Braille There is an important difference between just sending the raw text to a braille display which will translate the text to the default braille grade and language the braille display is using and having a pre-formatted braille rendition using a specific braille table. Example As a socially minded publisher creating a Math textbook, I wish to include my math equation examples in Braille as well as MathML since not all reading systems fully support MathML. I learn that Nemeth Braille is primarily used and have added separate preformatted Nemeth Braille examples in my publication.
