In each of these tutorials, I move from the basics to more advanced usages such as a table of contents for each chapter, tables of tables, tables of figures and how to modify the look and feel of them. All are accessible.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'>For the captions…I use captions in most if not all of my publications. They are accessible as long as you aren’t using text wrapping. When you use text wrapping, the Caption is in a text box. So as long as your images are in line with text, the caption is accessible. I usually modify the caption style to remove italics so that it is more readable.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'>For citations and bibliographies, the citation is placed in a Content Control which can be a keyboard trap for Word 2013 and earlier. As of Word 2016/Office 365 subscription if all updates are installed, it is less so. While there are times when I can’t tell if I am out of a citation or not, most of the time they are manageable. I use citations for journal articles and contributions to books. While the citations do use style guides like APA or Chicago, those style guides need updating and Microsoft is aware of this. As someone using JAWS, I find using citations and bibliography tools a great way to keep track of articles and publications I use frequently in writing. There is one problem with the Citation Content Control in that there is currently no keyboard access to convert the citation to static text if you need to do that. Additionally, each citation has to be converted to static text if that is a requirement of the publication you are writing for…I know, I had to deal with this. There is no “make all citations static. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'>For cross-references, it is a bit trickier. Usually the text associated with a cross-reference isn’t included in the link so it means a bit more work going into the field code and making sure the text is there. At least that was how it worked the last time I tried this. It is accessible but the usability may not be completely there. For example, “if we get a list of links, we may only get the page number without any context. Text like “see Appendix A” or “see chapter X” may provide more context but some of the text may not be there.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'>Cross-references are about the only tutorial topic I haven’t done so it might be time! <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-CA style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Cambria",serif;color:#1F3864'>One of the other issues with cross-references in the past has been that they don’t convert well to tagged PDF.
