Before you Begin
Before creating an electronic document, ask, “Should this content be a document or a webpage?” A webpage on Mass.gov, intranet, or wiki page is generally a more accessible format. Additionally, webpages can be more easily updated which saves time and resources.
Review Digital Accessibility Fundamentals, which provides overviews and instructions for alternative text (alt text) for images, color considerations, content and typography, and document and page structure.
If you prefer to outsource your document remediation, please use the Statewide IT Accessibility Services Contract, ITS82.
