Summary
This Success Criterion ensures that if the presentation of a text image is necessary for understanding content, a plain text version is also provided. This makes information accessible to people with visual impairments using screen readers that cannot interpret images.
Lyrics
VERSE 1:
Click on a page, see words in a picture frame
Can’t make them bigger, can’t change the display
Success Criterion one point four point five says there’s a better way
Let real text flow, not frozen in an image’s cage
CSS can style it, make it bold and bright
While users adjust it to fit their sight
Images of text lock choices away
But real text lets everyone read their own way
CHORUS:
Real text shines through, adapts to you
Change the size, the font, the hue
One point four point five keeps it alive
Let your words transform and thrive
Real text shines through, it’s accessibility true
VERSE 2:
Sarah needs larger fonts to see the screen
Marcus tracks better with wider spacing between
Cognitive differences need custom displays
But images of text just stay the same old ways
Unless it’s a logo or your brand’s design
Or fonts so unique they’re one of a kind
Use actual text, let CSS do the rest
Give users control – that’s the accessibility test
CHORUS:
Real text shines through, adapts to you
Change the size, the font, the hue
One point four point five keeps it alive
Let your words transform and thrive
Real text shines through, it’s accessibility true
BRIDGE/OUTRO:****
From headers to quotes, navigation to more
Real text opens every door
Both image and text? You’ve met the goal
Everyone reads with full control
One point four point five – remember this guide
Real text puts users in the driver’s side
