Adobe Accessibility Conformance Report

VPAT® Version 2.3 (Revised) – April 2019

Product Information

Name of Product/Version: Adobe Lightroom CC Web
Product Description: While the Lightroom web client does include much of the functionality of the other clients (import, organize, edit), these are secondary to its purpose. You should think of it primarily as a sharing destination – i.e., where people got to see shared albums that have been made in the other Lightroom clients.

Notes: 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 Lightroom CC Web 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.
