Hi :)
I have forwarded this to the accessibility list which is usually faster and 
better at answering these problems than the Users List.  

Unfortunately protonpusher is not subscribed to the Accessibility List (i 
think) so please CC replies directly to him/her.  

Thanks and regards from
Tom :)

I am looking for some guidance with math equations in Impress presentations, 
taking into account accessibility requirements. I am using LibreOffice on 
Ubuntu. Also a consideration is that the presentations would be converted to 
pdf as well.

My understanding is that description attached to the equation would serve as an 
alt tag when I convert to pdf. Where I am sort of stumped is what to put in the 
description. One though was to copy the Math markup to the description. However 
I am not actually sure how visually impaired students would be able to use 
this. I played around with Orca, but could not get it to read the equation in 
either the original Impress presentation, or in the pdf output.

So, 1) Am I going in the right direction putting the LO Math markup in the 
equation description, and 2) How would I read the description in the Impress 
presentation if I were visually impaired?
