+ | A: Wow! This is the first time we have had a Kindle book do Alt-text. You don't have to rewrite any of the image descriptions that are all ready there, though there are a few that need either Alt-text or other work done. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I QA'd the book and identified everything that needs additional work: | ||
+ | * Describe the Cover | ||
+ | * replace those wavy lines with content break lines | ||
+ | * Some images have alt-text that tells the reader where to find the image description, | ||
+ | * In Chapter 3 there is a chart that is described. It is repeated later on in the book. In the second book enter the following into the Alt-text: '' | ||
+ | * For the phrase images, some state they are text, and others just transcribe the image with no further context. In these instances add '' | ||

+ | A: A long description should be done for this image. You can use multiple modalities (lists, subheadings, | ||
+ | |||
+ | No need to describe what is crossed out. Divide the form into subsections below the main heading and describe all the data in either lists or tables depending on the data type. You may need to play around with this, it looks like it may need a mixed of both. | ||
