<p>Hi Jason,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>My opinion is that it's not so much that it makes a document inaccessible, but rather, I see using a title as best practice and good design for digital content like a Word Doc and provides more context to assistive tech users (specifically screen readers).
This context might be helpful especially if someone named a file something vague like syllabus.docx or document.docx (which in itself does not represent best practice.)</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am actually not sure why the Accessibility checker does not alert for that issue...but when a Word Doc is made into a PDF, PDF accessibility checker will for sure pick up on that omission.
<br>

Is anyone using LabArchives? Ian curious about how the IOS version compares to the Windows version in terms of both accessibility and overal functionality.<br>

Good morning,<br>
We are having a bit of a discussion about a point brought up about accessibility in Office. I have been told that not adding a meaningful title in the properties of a document makes that document inaccessible. I don't mean naming the file meaningfully or
adding an appropriate heading structure, of course you should do this. I mean going to "file" - "info" - then clicking the "add a title" field. By not doing this, is a document actually inaccessible? If this does actually ruin the accessibility of a document,
any thoughts on why it doesn't come up in the accessibility checker?<br>
<br>
Either I am not searching right, or there just isn't a lot of information out there on this (probably the former). Your expertise is much appreciated.<br>
Thank you!<br>
