The Accessible Web Publishing Wizard Version 1.0 is available for Microsoft Power Point. It allows authors to create highly accessible HTML versions of Power Point Presentations with little or no knowledge of accessibility or HTML coding techniques. The tool makes it easy to not only conform to Section 508 requirements[1], but also to conform at the Double-AA level to the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines[2]. I encourage anyone who uses Power Point to create presentations to try this tool to make them accessible to people with disabilities. The free download is available from: http://cita.rehab.uiuc.edu/software/office/index.html Please feel free to share this URL with other lists or people you feel could benefit from this tool.
