Guidelines for Accessible E-text (2009)
E-text is structured electronic text which is accessible to people with a print disability, that is, to people who can’t access information from regular print. The Guidelines for Accessible E-text provide document creators with best practice accessibility methods across a variety of electronic formats in common use. The guidelines replace the Round Table’s 1995 Guidelines for preparation of text materials on computer disk for people with print disabilities.
The guidelines are available as a free download using the links below.
Guidelines for the Formatting of Braille material (1995)
The Braille Formatting Guidelines were prepared by the Australian Braille Authority for transcribers of braille material in Australia, to ensure uniformity of Braille formatting without too much rigidity.
These guidelines are currently under review, with a revised version expected to be published in 2016.
