You probably routinely use spell check and grammar check on documents to ensure they are error free. Do you, however, accessibility check? Accessible documents and content are of vital importance for people with disabilities, and are also helpful for everybody. And ensuring accessibility can be as straightforward as ensuring zero spelling errors using spell check! This session walks you through Microsoft's built-in functionality in Word and PowerPoint to check for accessibility issues and quickly fix them.
