Accessibility features
Accessibility features help users who have a physical disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to use software products successfully.
This version of IBM WebSphere Portal:
- Supports installation through a command line interface known as console mode. This is the accessible equivalent of installing by using the graphical user interface.
- Supports interfaces commonly used by screen readers and screen magnifiers (Windows only)
- Supports use of screen-reader software and digital speech synthesizers to hear what is displayed on the screen.
- Can be operated using only the keyboard
- Allows the user to request more time to complete timed responses
- Supports customization of display attributes such as color, contrast, and font size
- Communicates all information independently of color
- Supports the attachment of alternative input and output devices
- Supports alternatives to audio information
- Supports adjustable volume control
- Does not flash the screen at rates that could induce epileptic seizures
- Provides documentation in an accessible format
For best results when using a screen reader to view WebSphere Portal, use Freedom Scientific JAWS 11 or higher and Firefox 3.5 or higher.
The documentation includes the following features to aid accessibility:
- All documentation is available in HTML formats to give the maximum opportunity for users to apply screen-reader software technology.
- All images in the documentation are provided with alternative text so that users with vision impairments can understand the contents of the images.
When appropriate, the documentation for specific product features contains additional information about accessibility.
See the IBM Human Ability and Accessibility Center for more information about the commitment that IBM has to accessibility:
