The Low Vision Accessibility Task Force also briefly covered the topic of printing customized web content.

Ludo,
most folks refer to the work published by Lighthouse International

Accessible Print Design
http://li129-107.members.linode.com/accessibility/design/accessible-print-design/

[Screen shot of web page]
"Accessible Print" guidelines would be different than accessible electronic documents, and different from accessible web content, the latter two being digital (also known as electronic) and able to be rendered and printed by the browser in ways that the user chooses, while printed documents (e.g. materials) are just that, printed.  Once printed, the user has few choices in transforming the content.  CCTV and other assistive technologies do not change the printed materials.

Are you working on guidelines for accessible electronic documents that can be printed, where the user as access to the electronic document, as opposed to accessible print guidelines, where the user only has the printed document?

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a Print Accessibility Guidelines, based (from a part) on the WCAG...

Here you can find my draft documents (many hours of works and researches, case studies, etc.) :

https://goo.gl/PVKMYp

There is 3 parts (+ introduction) :

  *   Web from print
  *   Print
  *   contextual printing (sorry, difficult for me to translate in english, it's all the environnement of printing... using, paper, etc.)
Some people are interested to work with me on this ?
I search also people to translate in English...

all documents are in french...
one part left for this time because not really finish (contextual printing)
I will put another files after (ressources, documents, etc.)

Please, can you give me your feedback ? about this initiative, about print accessibility, about ... as you want !

I'm so impress by work and involvement of US people in and on accessibility... we don't have this in France... so, I'm sure you will be sensitized of this important project, because accessibility is not only on the web or in building constructions !

Bien à vous tous,
:-)
Ludo,
ps : I'm french living in France... with beautiful french accent when I speak english ;-)
