Ensuring Image Accessibility in Technical Writing

Adding rich screenshots, diagrams, and architecture flowcharts makes documentation engaging. Ensuring every image includes meaningful alt text guarantees your docs are accessible to all readers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is image alt text important in Markdown?

Image alt text is read aloud by screen readers for visually impaired users and indexed by search engine crawlers. Markdown images without alt text violates WCAG accessibility guidelines.

How do I add alt text in Markdown?

Markdown image syntax is ![Alt Text Description](image-url.png). The text inside the square brackets is the accessible alt description.

Can MDForge auto-fix missing alt text?

Yes! Click the "Fix Alt" button in the inspector table next to any image without alt text to add a descriptive placeholder.
