Brief Section Overviews for the Requirements Document #2
Comments
Thanks for getting this started, Laura! For these section intros, I wonder if we want a description the overall issue, rather than a summary of user requirements? I guess it depends on what we decide to do with the Overview… I'll try to make some time to work on it later this week and come up with some specific ideas for discussion. |
I updated the text per John's suggestions. I agree that the overview will impact how we proceed. Thank you! |
Here's a rough draft of what I was thinking for brief descriptions for each section. 2.1 Luminance and Color 2.2 Tracking 2.3 Perceiving 2.4 Spacing for Reading 2.5 Identifying Elements 2.6 Point of Regard and Proximity 2.7 Printing |
Hi Shawn, I like the idea! The originals may be more suitable for a check list, if we ever want to make one. Thanks. |

The following is a start on writing brief section introductions for the Accessibility Requirements for Low Vision Users document.
2.1 Luminance and Color
Because people with low vision are, by nature, an extremely-diverse group with a wide range of needs, user control of luminance and color is required. Whenever adjacent colors convey different meanings, such meanings must be distinguishable.
2.2 Tracking
To read and to follow text, users require content to rewrap and reflow; and text areas must adapt to accommodate. User control of line length, text alignment, and hyphenation, is necessary for tracking.
2.3 Perceiving (Letter Characteristics)
User control of text size, font face, text style, and capitalization, is required for legibility.
2.4 Spacing for Reading
User control of letter, word, and element spacing; as well as leading and margins; is required for reading.
2.5 Distinguishing
User customization and control of text elements, text proportions, borders, and indentation, is required to differentiate parts of content.
2.6 Point of Regard and Proximity
The point of regard must be maintained, and the proximity of related information must be perceivable.
2.7 Printing
For printed content to be perceivable, user customization is required.
Ideas for improvement?
