<awk> Meeting: Web Content Accessibility Guidelines Working Group Teleconference

Alternative: This does not include text that is part of image where the included text alone cannot be used as a text alternative for the purposes of meeting Success Criterion 1.1.1.

Example: Pictures, graphs, and diagrams which visually convey important information through more than just text.

<kerstin> will it be useful to include "screenshots"?

<Loretta> Good suggestions, Kerstin.

<awk> we mean that text that is part of a picture, for example within a photograph, graph, screenshot, diagram or image that conveys information of any type visually through more than just the text is not considered an image of text.

<Loretta> The definition of "image of text" contains the note "....". Examples of such pitcures include graphs, screenshots, and diagrams which visually convey important information through more than just text.
