IDPF has been producing guidelines to help publishers understand and create accessible content.
Amnet combines the IDPF guidelines and WCAG 2.0 Level A & AA guidelines to produce accessible ePUB output.
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0)
Developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (WC3)
International guidelines for web pages and apps
Three levels of conformance from A (lowest) to AAA (highest)
Most content providers aim for Level AA
For details: www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG20/quickref/

Alternative Text Writing
Adding alternative text descriptions to non-text content is an important guideline within WCAG 2.0. Amnet provides
short and long alt text in excel spreadsheet format in a wide range of disciplines utilizing subject matter experts.
MathML
MathML makes mathematical equations accessible to everyone by eliminating the ambiguity of a verbal description of
a picture. There are many tools available to support MathML creation.
Amnet can convert your equations to MathML. We follow the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF) guidelines
for MathML, which is the best approach in most cases for encoding math content.

10. Subtitles – Closed Captions
Subtitles Closed Captions
Closed captions are an extension of subtitles
and usually contain descriptions of important
non-dialogue audio, such as "(sighs)" or "(door
creaks)" or lyrics.
This is specifically intended for people who are
deaf and hard of hearing.
They are intended for users with hearing
disabilities to help them fully understand the
narration.
Subtitles are the written form of dialogues in the
video; they generally display only what is spoken by
a character.
This assists the listener to follow the context
irrespective of the language.
They are intended for listeners who are able to hear
but prefer to have the dialogue of the narration
displayed.
11. Transcription & Synchronization Services
Transcription of audio from speakers with various English accents
Proofreading the transcribed text against the spoken audio
Audio and transcribed text are synchronized at word level
Syncing the content such that the customized audio player highlights each transcribed word against the spoken
