- Description
- At present Belgium is one of the rare countries
that have a daily newspaper accessible to visually impaired
readers. Both an electronic version (DiGiKrant) and a Braille paper
version (BrailleKrant) are published on a day-to-day basis. This
paper shows what challenges exist for visually impaired readers to
read a paper and how these challenges can be overcome. It further
explains how the accessible newspapers are being created. In the
publication process the XML standard is extensively used, not only
as an exchange format between content providers and the publishers,
but also as a format enabling a usable access to the electronic
newspaper by the visually impaired reader. The paper shows which
information formats are used and how the process of conversion
between them works.
