Notes: This report provides separate descriptions for the software meeting room component and its authored content.

  • Software is the Adobe Connect Application for Desktop. It contains functions for meeting attendees with roles of participant, presenter, and host.
  • Authored Content (Recording) includes recorded versions of meeting content, plus read-only representations of interactive controls.
  • Authored Content (Video) includes MPEG4 (MP4) and Flash Video (FLV) formats.

For functions of Adobe Connect which involve other product components or authored content, see the Accessibility Conformance Reports (ACRs) for the Adobe Connect web meeting room and Adobe Connect Central.

The information contained in this report applies to the product itself. Information about product help and support documentation is located at: http://www.adobe.com/accessibility/compliance.html.

Evaluation Methods Used: Testing Adobe Connect involved extensive use of leading assistive technology, such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and speech recognition software, as well exclusive use of the keyboard. Native platform accessibility features were also used to assist with testing. These were supplemented with techniques such as manual inspection of Accessibility API output.

Conformance Level

Remarks and Explanations

302.1 Without Vision

Software: Supports with Exceptions

Authored Content (Recording): Does Not Support

Authored Content (Video): Does Not Support

Software: Most functions of the product are usable without vision. For example, as noted in 2.1.1 Keyboard, most product functionality can be operated through a keyboard interface through a combination of standard keystrokes and documented product-specific hotkeys. Exceptions include:

  • As noted in 1.4.2 Audio Control, meeting room audio interferes with screen reader speech output when a user is locating the controls to mute it. As a workaround, users can learn a sequence of keystrokes to mute the meeting room audio. 
  • As noted in 1.1.1 Non-text Content, the product does not provide descriptive text for some non-text content, such as logo graphics. 
  • As noted in 1.1.1 Non-text Content, “You are now broadcasting your camera” is announced by the screen reader for a guest attendee when the host is actually broadcasting. 
  • As noted in 1.2.5 Audio Description (Prerecorded), attendees can present a prerecorded video clip with audio description in the main narration track. However, the product does not allow attendees to provide a separate audio description track. 
  • As noted in 2.1.2 No Keyboard Trap, keyboard focus is trapped in playback of a recorded meeting.

Authored Content (Recording): Most content in recorded meetings is not usable without vision. Examples include:

  • As noted in 1.2.3 Audio Description or Media Alternative (Prerecorded), the product does not allow authors to provide an audio description or add a downloadable transcript for most video in recorded meetings, such as recorded webcam video or recorded screenshares. 
  • As noted in 1.3.1 Info and Relationships, the current page number of a Share pod document is not conveyed to assistive technology.

Authored Content (Video): Most content exported to video is not usable without vision. As noted in 1.2.5 Audio Description (Prerecorded), examples include:

  • The product does not allow authors to provide separate audio description tracks. 
  • The product does not provide a mode of operation for authors to create an audio description for recorded webcam video or recorded screenshares.

302.2 With Limited Vision

Software: Does Not Support

Authored Content (Recording): Supports

Authored Content (Video): Supports

Software: As described in “Web (Meeting Room)” for this clause, the web-based meeting room provides partial equivalent facilitation in environments where users are permitted to use it. In the software product itself, most functions are not usable by people with limited vision. Examples include:

  • As noted in 1.4.4 Resize Text, the product does not provide a mechanism to resize most text. 
  • As noted in 1.4.3 Contrast (Minimum), some text does not meet minimum contrast requirements, even when colors are customized by an administrator.

Authored Content (Recording): Authors can create content which is functional for users with limited vision.

Authored Content (Recording): Authors can create content which is functional for users without perception of color.

Authored Content (Video): Authors can create content which is functional for users without perception of color.

302.4 Without Hearing

Software: Supports with Exceptions

Software: Most functions of the product are usable without hearing. For example, as noted in 1.2.4 Captions (Live), using the Closed Captioning pod extension, a meeting attendee or third-party captioning service provider can create synchronized captions for live audio content in the meeting. Exceptions include:
