Texts that can be formatted via styles are not replaced by images.

The multiplication of fonts designed for display on the screen allows to obtain a quality typographic rendering. It is therefore not necessary to use an image instead of certain texts.

Objectives

  • Facilitate the adaptation of rendering to media (mobile or otherwise) or to the needs of readers (expanding the size of the characters, changing colors, police, fat, justification, etc. ).
  • Improve accessibility of content to readers with disabilities.
  • Improve the inclusion of content by search engines specific to reading software.

Implementation

  • Use formatted HTML text using CSS styles (especially downloadable or Web font fonts)

Control

  • This verification requires a visual review of the pages to identify images containing only text and to evaluate whether a CSS formatting would have made it possible to obtain a rendering. For each page containing : Review images (HTML and possibly CSS background images used to simulate a partial texture : scroll, notebook sheet, etc.). Make sure that the textual images correspond only to formatting that cannot be obtained through CSS styles. Are excluded from this requirement : logos, promotional graphics.

Validation

  • Needs to be human verified.
