Introduction to Accessible Email Signatures
In this tutorial, we will demonstrate the steps to make your email signatures accessible in Outlook. This is crucial for ensuring that all recipients, including those who rely on screen readers, can read and understand your email content. -
Accessing Outlook Settings
To begin, users need to access the settings in Outlook. Follow these steps: - Click the gear icon located at the top right corner of the Outlook window. - In the left-hand menu, remain on the 'Account' section. -
Editing Signatures
Next, you will edit your email signatures: - In the center of the screen, click on 'Signatures'. - On the right side, under the 'Create and Edit Signature' section, you will see a list of your existing signature templates. - Select the signature you want to make accessible from the drop-down menu. -
Adding Alternative Text to Images
To ensure that images in your signature are accessible, you need to add alternative text: - Right-click on the image within your signature to open a context menu. - Select 'Add Alternative Text'. - A dialog box will appear where you can input the image description. For example, for a company logo, you could type 'Logo of [Company Name]'. - Click 'OK' to confirm and apply the changes. -
