Re: [EXTERNAL] Checking Text Spacing For Normal People

I use the Stylish browser extension in Chrome.

Go to userstyles.org<http://userstyles.org/> and search for "accessibility". Open the style called "text-spacing for accessibility WCAG 2.1 AA 1.4.12" and click Install Style. It will ask you to install the Stylish browser extension.

Then in Chrome, select Customize > Extensions > Manage Extensions. On the Stylish card click Details and check 'Pin to toolbar'.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Checking Text Spacing For Normal People


Hi,

Does anyone have a way to test text spacing for those criteria that involve it for people who don’t want to, or don’t know how to muck around with browser development environments?



Thanks.



Jim
