MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / February 2007Office12: How to add or remove alternate text assciated with an Im
Does anyone knows how to add or remove alternate text associated with an image in Office 12. In Office 11 this option existed under 'Format Picture' -> 'Web'. Thanks in advance. -Kashif Hi, Right click on the picture and select "Size and Position". There is an alt text tab there.

I would like to insert alt text, which I can do, but it doesn't then appear in any of the forms I have tried (slide show view, web page, accessible web page), and consequently is of no use for screen reader users. Please help Lindsay > Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > >> > > >> > -Kashif > that's ll very well, but it doesn't actually work!

Please help It's odd. The HTML from PPT 2007 does include Alt text that you apply using the method described below, but not in any simple way. I suspect that the browser just isn't seeing it as alt text. MSIE 6, for example, won't display the alt text, but will display it when handed something like: <img src="the_image_PPT_created" alt="This is the same image that PPT made"</img> In other words, it's the HTML, not my browser settings or yours, or so it would seem. If animation isn't crucial to your presentations, you might want to have a look at our PPT2HTML addin at http://www.pptools.com/ppt2html/ While I've not tested it extensively with PPT 2007 yet, the free demo is fully functional, so you can give it a good workout. If you want to test with 2007, I'll be happy to work with you directly on it. If nothing else, the free demo includes an Accessibility Assistant that makes applying Alt text a LOT easier than PPT's own dialog boxes. Yours to keep at no charge. <g> > Lindsay > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > >> > > > >> > -Kashif ----------------------------------------- Steve Rindsberg, PPT MVP PPT FAQ: www.pptfaq.com PPTools: www.pptools.com ================================================ thanks - I have come to PPT2HTML from another source and am currently trying it!
