Using MS PowerPoint with assistive technology

Abstract

Help guides for using MS Office programmes are generally not accessible. And content on accessibility is mostly aimed at users who are obviously not impaired themselves while working for those who are. Yet the MS Office package is one of the most important software packages in the world of work and education. Freely available, accessible content for people with impairments has so far only been available in fragmented or outdated form. Until now, there has been no accessible, up-to-date and comprehensive guide for the programme. This book is for people who cannot use a mouse (primarily blind and visually impaired people) to give them a solid introduction to MS PowerPoint and the most important features.
