How to invoke alt-text for images in a PDF file by Automation

Hi,
Can any one help me?
How to invoke Alt-text for Images in a PDF file using script?
Thanks for looking into this.
Regards,

What do you mean "invoke" alt-text?  If Alt-text is there, then it will be presented to a screen reader.

  • Acrobat X Pro:  Accessibility Report says No Alt Text for image but there is

    I have added the alternate text for images on my pdf but the accessibility report is still giving me errors stating that there is no alternate text.  Does anyone have any idea why?  I have checked and the alt text is there.  I don't understand this.
    Thank you.

    I assume when you click on the error it is taking you to the location where the error is.  Not seeing the document it is hard to tell... do you have a multi-page document and when you click on the error does it take you to the location where that problem is? 
    There are several things that could cause this problem.  The Figure or other tag that contains the alt text must have content. It cannot be an empty tag. 
    It also cannot have another Tag inside of it containing the content.  There must be some actual content directly within the Tag with the alt text, not nested inside another Tag, if that makes any sense.
    Or, there may be another Figure Tag that has no content. That, too, will generate an error.
    If neither of those suggestions work, if you post the file I can probably find the problem. 

  • How to change Alt text for the Popup Key LOV Image in Apex  3.2.1.00.10

    we are using Application Express version is 3.2.1.00.10
    There is an icon to click on to popup the lov search box, the alt text for that image is currently "popup Lov"
    would it be possible to change the text to something more meaningfull e.g. "Lookup Person name" or "search Directory for Person names" .
    I have tried by updaing them
    from
    Shared Components>Templates> Popup List of Values Template > Popup Icon Attr --> width="13" height="13" alt="Popup Lov"
    (under Popup List of Values)
    to
    alt="#CURRENT_ITEM_NAME#"
    it didn't work.
    your respone will help getting accessability sign off

    Venu,
    Try adding title = "Lookup Person name" to the Image Attributes of your icon or button.

  • How to define alt text for an anchored frame in FrameMaker 11?

    What is the procedure in FrameMaker 11 to include alt text for anchored frames? We need to produce tagged PDF output that is accessibility compliant; this output must include alt text for each image in the document that a screen reader can read out.
    In previous FrameMaker versions, it was possible to define alt text as follows:
    Select the frame and choose Graphics > Object Properties.
    Click Object Attributes.
    In the Text Attributes section, add your alt text and actual text, and then click Set.
    The FrameMaker online help still describes this same procedure, at http://help.adobe.com/en_US/framemaker/using/WSd817046a44e105e21e63e3d11ab7f7960b-7f0f.htm l. However, I see that in FrameMaker 11, what you get on choosing Graphics > Object Properties has completely changed from previous versions, and I cannot see Object Attributes.
    Where is the alt text defined for an object in FrameMaker 11?

    In the Anchored Frame panel, click on the Object Attributes button.

  • Printing a PDF document to virtual PDF printer converts text to image in output PDF-file

    When I "print" any regular PDF document to a PDF virtual printer, it always converts a source regular (textual) PDF document into an image only document. It applies even to pure plain text documents (say, HTML source code etc.)
    (I often need to create a PDF document from the existing PDF. Yes, I know, it might seems quite pointless, but actually it makes sense.)
    Thus I have 2 questions:
    1) Is such sonvertion normal or I do anything wrong myself?
    2) It is by design, is there any woraround to prevent conveting text to image?
    Many thanks in advance!

    Have you checked to see if the "Print As Image" option is inadvertently checked? In the Print dialog, click the Advanced button then look for the checkbox.

  • How do I save a scanned image as a pdf file w/ my MG5420?

    I just installed my MG5420 printer and when I scan an image I do not see an option to save the file as a .pdf file.  Is there a scan utility to assist in scanning documents?  There was a utility for my MP800 printer that made this very easy.

    Hi delach,
    It sounds like you may not have the My Image Garden software which allows you to scan documents to PDF.  You can download the software by following these steps:
    Go to Canon's Support & Drivers website at:
    http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/support/consumer
    Enter your model name into the Model Name field, then click GO.
    Select your operating system in the Select Operating System and Select OS Version dropdown lists, respectively.
    Expand the Software section by clicking the red triangle.
    Click on the file named My Image Garden.
    After reading the details and disclaimer, click 'I Agree Begin Download' and save the file to your computer.
    Once the download is complete, double-click the file from its download location to begin the installation.

  • Large alt text for pdf images

    I'm trying to include alt text for my pdf images but the text is over the character limit.  Is there any way to include longer alt text (for example through the use of an external file and a longdesc tag) in a pdf, or am I basically stuck with the character limit no matter what I do?

    Does anybody at Mozilla read this or is it just for venting frustrations?
    Alt-text is NOT just for when the image can't be displayed. For instance, in my work I use a particular kind of colour palette. It used to be that when I hovered over the little square showing the colour, that the colour number would appear. It's the ONLY way to know what colour you're dealing with, in this case.
    This used to be available in Firefox, but suddently it disappeared. This is forcing me to use Safari, which has this feature. But I prefer to work with Firefox.
    This is very frustrating!!!

  • Alt text of image tooltip not showing for some cases

    Hello,
    I have followed the following steps in adding the alt text of images. Adobe Acrobat X Pro * Add alternate text and supplementary information to tags
    However, there is a weird case where the tooltip of the alt text is not shown on hover for a specific page (page 5 of the attached PDF)
    http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=63161349344665038065
    Please advise if there is something wrong with the PDF that is causing Reader to not show the alt text for the images in that certain page. (and if the PDF should be fixed or is Reader the one that has a problem).
    Thanks

  • Alt text for photos not appearing

    Hi,
    I tagged a large document in InDesign (because Acrobat Pro's feature is too unpredictable).
    I assigned alt text to all the photos, but when I hover my cursor over them while viewing the
    exported PDF, only some are showing up.
    It turns out that large photos that I have on chapter divider pages are the only ones
    not showing their alt text, even though they are set up in InDesign structure view the
    same way as all other photos.
    Can anyone think of a reason why this is happening? The only thing I can think of
    that's different about them is that they originally are from a master page. But because
    each photo is unique, they've already been disconnected from the original master page.
    Thanks,
    Jane

    I just figured out that those photos had been set to a blending mode of Multiply
    because an earlier iteration of the design used transparency. But to the eye, they
    look like normal photos, so I didn't realize they were set to Multiply.
    This solved the problem but it's not heartening news. What if my graphic legitimately
    did have a blending mode set? What would my workaround be if I needed to set Alt Text
    for those images?

  • Alt Text and images

    Can anyone point me in the direction to force users to use alt text with images in Portal content areas to meet with W3C compliency?

    Hi marjar
    Thank you for your reply, I see now that the URL in IE has http// but in firefox (like this URL https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/989394?) shows as https// why is that? and this must be why my ALT and external links in my images do not work in Firefox. However my internal links do work except for the ALT. Is there a way or a plugin for Firefox that I can instal to make my site compatible to https// ?

  • How to extract text and image information from postscript file

    I want to write a programe,and extract text and image information from postscript file using Java.Is it possible? How to extract ?
    Thank!

    First of all, PostScript is not a "text" file. It can and often does contain binary data. Since PostScript streams often contain nested procedures, unless you process the procedure definitions and can "execute" them, you cannot simply "scan" a file to get what you want. No, I can't talk about this in detail since it is quite complex. But Adobe does have the
    PostScript Language Reference Manual on-line for download at
    . Look that over and you will have a fairly healthy respect as to the task involved.

  • Hi..how we enter standard text for smartform using include text

    hi
    guru
    ..how we enter standard text for smartform using include text..
    i know only using so10 we write text..
    in smartform it asking text-object
                                     text-id,
    so what values we should give to get text

    Hi,
       Do u want to print Standard Text or the Texts that are maintained at the Transaction level.
    If it is standard text , then u use text id as ST or if it is Texts that are maintained at the Transaction level then u have to go to that specific transaction and check for that text , then go to text editor ,in the goto menu u have header data where u get the Text id , text name.... , use them in ur smartform in the INCLUDE text.
    Further u have the option of text modules in smartforms which act as standard texts, so if u r going for creation of standard texts then its better to use text modules.
