Graphic design covers all kinds of creative design and visual communications. The accessibility of graphic design is not always considered in the production of websites brochures or Word documents. Fortunately there is a great handbook for accessible graphic design.
Graphic design covers creative design, visual communications, applied design and technology sectors. So the handbook covers typography, digital media, web accessibility, Office documents, accessible PDFs, print design, environmental graphic design, colour selection and more. It’s written for an easy read and has a logical structure. At the end is a list of publications, links to websites and tools to help. This excellent resource comes from Ontario, Canada.
There are so many little things that graphic designers can do to make their creations more accessible. The guide unpacks them to show it can be done with little, if any, extra effort. The title of the guide is, AccessAbility 2: A Practical Handbook on Accessible Graphic Design.
