Remarks and explanations

(a) When software is designed to run on a system that has a keyboard, product functions shall be executable from a keyboard where the function itself or the result of performing a function can be discerned textually.

Supports with minor exceptions

Adobe LeanPrint product functions are keyboard accessible in the plug-ins for Microsoft Office, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Reader, and web browsers with the exception of the “My Savings” chart interface in the LeanPrint Preview screen.

(b) Applications shall not disrupt or disable activated features of other products that are identified as accessibility features, where those features are developed and documented according to industry standards. Applications also shall not disrupt or disable activated features of any operating system that are identified as accessibility features where the application programming interface for those accessibility features has been documented by the manufacturer of the operating system and is available to the product developer.

Supports

Adobe LeanPrint does not interfere with operating system accessibility features.

(c) A well-defined on-screen indication of the current focus shall be provided that moves among interactive interface elements as the input focus changes. The focus shall be programmatically exposed so that Assistive Technology can track focus and focus changes.

Supports

Current focus is visible and exposed programmatically.

(d) Sufficient information about a user interface element including the identity, operation and state of the element shall be available to Assistive Technology. When an image represents a program element, the information conveyed by the image must also be available in text.

Supports with minor exceptions

All user interface controls expose information correctly to assistive technologies with the exception of the “My Savings” chart interface in the LeanPrint Preview screen and the two date picker controls when selecting a custom date range while printing an Outlook message thread.

(e) When bitmap images are used to identify controls, status indicators, or other programmatic elements, the meaning assigned to those images shall be consistent throughout an application's performance.

Supports

Bitmap images used in multiple places in the application are used consistently to convey consistent meaning.

(f) Textual information shall be provided through operating system functions for displaying text. The minimum information that shall be made available is text content, text input caret location, and text attributes.

Supports

Textual information is provided via operating system text functions.

(g) Applications shall not override user selected contrast and color selections and other individual display attributes.

Supports

Adobe LeanPrint supports Windows High-Contrast mode for application user interfaces. 

Page preview areas are designed to represent the printed page and as a result are not designed to respond to color contrast settings.

(h) When animation is displayed, the information shall be displayable in at least one non-animated presentation mode at the option of the user.

Not applicable

(i) Color coding shall not be used as the only means of conveying information, indicating an action, prompting a response, or distinguishing a visual element.

Supports

By design, color coding is not used as the only means to accomplish the goals indicted in the criteria.

(j) When a product permits a user to adjust color and contrast settings, a variety of color selections capable of producing a range of contrast levels shall be provided.

Not applicable

Adobe LeanPrint does not permit the user to adjust color and contrast settings within the application.

(k) Software shall not use flashing or blinking text, objects, or other elements having a flash or blink frequency greater than 2 Hz and lower than 55 Hz.

Supports

Adobe LeanPrint does not use flashing or blinking content.

(l) When electronic forms are used, the form shall allow people using Assistive Technology to access the information, field elements, and functionality required for completion and submission of the form, including all directions and cues.

Supports

Adobe LeanPrint includes many user interface controls for users to enter information and ensures that people using assistive technologies can access the controls. One exception is the settings button on the preview screen which screen reader users will not be able to access; however, all functionality can be accessed through the LeanPrint application directory.

Not applicable

A text-only version is not necessary for compliance.

(l) When pages utilize scripting languages to display content, or to create interface elements, the information provided by the script shall be identified with functional text that can be read by Assistive Technology.

Supports

Adobe LeanPrint uses scripting and ensures that sufficient information is available to support accessibility requirements.

(m) When a web page requires that an applet, plug-in or other application be present on the client system to interpret page content, the page must provide a link to a plug-in or applet that complies with §1194.21(a) through (l).

Not applicable

Adobe LeanPrint does not require a plug-in to interpret page content.
