Include captions for audio content that is integral to comprehending the material. A video of a speech, for example, might require captions for accessibility, but a quick sound associated with a button probably wouldn’t.

Methods to add captions to a Flash document include the following:

• Add text as captions, ensuring that the captions are synchronized with the audio in the Timeline.

• Use Hi-Caption Viewer, a component available from Hi Software that works with Hi-Caption SE for use with Flash (see www.adobe.com/go/accessible_captions). Captioning Macromedia Flash Movies with Hi-Caption SE, a white paper, explains how to use Hi-Caption SE and Flash together to create a captioned document (see www.adobe.com/go/accessibility_papers).
