Information to record

Use these prompts to agree the record for your project. Keep the answers and their source references together; leave an unknown value explicit rather than filling it with an assumption.

User tasks
Identify the recording and review steps involved.
Preferred settings
Record text size, input and assistive arrangements.
Test barriers
Describe the specific task that becomes difficult.
Alternative method
Agree an accessible way to retain equivalent information.
Review owner
Name who will check that the arrangement works.

Checks for this task

  1. Include the affected user in a representative task trial.
  2. Keep essential meaning available beyond colour alone in report legends.
  3. Review the usable result, not just whether a setting can be enabled.

A worked example

Illustrative example, not a client case: A reader has difficulty distinguishing map colours. The team checks that tree numbers and the written legend communicate the intended categories, then asks the reader to interpret a sample report.

Scope and limits

The worksheet supports practical planning; it is not a formal compliance assessment or a promise that all assistive technologies are supported.

Use the worksheet

The download contains the prompts and checks above with space for your project notes. It is a plain text document you can edit in a text editor or copy into your project brief. It contains no client information and does not run calculations, import records or change an account.
