What are the alternatives for diagrams? Would an ascii diagram be better? I'm not sure if screen readers would ignore all of the random characters or not.
I'm assuming just a text description would be better, but I don't know what other options are available.
Apple has gotten really good at text selection in images. I can take a screenshot of a webpage and then select the text in the screenshot, or I could take a photo of a sign and select the text in the sign.
Do you know if there is anything similar for screen readers?
For screen reader accessibility, isn’t text a better option? If I were working with an engineer who uses a screen reader, I’d document heavily in text. Good practice anyway, since diagrams aren’t great at depth.
Nice and simple, but unfortunately you lose all accessibility with a .png diagram. Specifically, they're impenetrable to screen readers.
