- | ======Dealing with Multiple Images====== | ||
- | |||
- | Muliple images include: | ||
- | * Images that go over two pages | ||
- | * Images in Sequence | ||
- | * Multiple Images grouped together (usual in pairs) | ||
- | |||
- | ====Two Page Images==== | ||
- | |||
- | Sometimes images can go over two pages. In the print version this may appear as a single image, but screenreaders will pick it up as two separate images. | ||
- | * Describe both pages in the first image’s Alt-text | ||
- | * Leave the Alt-text in the second image empty so it is marked as decorative. | ||
- | |||
- | < | ||
- | |||
- | If it is an image that also requires a long description: | ||
- | * follow this same procedure | ||
- | * add the link to the long description below the first image | ||
- | * If the second image has a caption enter '' | ||
- | |||
- | ====Images in Sequence==== | ||
- | |||
- | An image in a sequence is when there is a group of images that are very similar with only slight variations. A good example is from DAISY with a group of paintings of a decaying castle. [[https:// | ||
- | |||
- | If you have an image in a sequence: | ||
- | * only fully describe the image in the first instance. | ||
- | * In all the proceeding images, only describe what is different. | ||
- | |||
- | This can also occur in [[public: | ||
- | |||
- | ====Grouped Images==== | ||
- | |||
- | Sometimes you will have images that are grouped together. This is not a collage, a collage is an artistic medium. Grouped images tend to have a single caption for both images. | ||
- | |||
- | If you have a group of images, they will be combined into a single image file. This means the Alt-text needs to set up the fact that it is a group of images. | ||
- | |||
- | Structure the description as follows: | ||
- | * Begin with '' | ||
- | * Start with the first image in reading order (i.e. on the left, or on the top) | ||
- | * Describe each image as its own description, | ||
