Starting with Microsoft Office 2010, Microsoft released an Accessibility Checker in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. This feature will “check the document for content that people with disabilities might find difficult to read.”1 The inspection results will include items such as missing alternative text, providing descriptive links, and using heading and paragraph styles.
