Add an accessibility description to an object

You can add an accessibility description to any object in your book. When the book is viewed on iPad or Mac, VoiceOver (Apple’s screen reader) reads the object’s accessibility description aloud.

If you don’t provide a description, VoiceOver reads the object’s default description (“pie chart,” for example).

VoiceOver automatically reads object titles, labels, and captions.

Add or edit accessibility text

Select an object.
If the Widget inspector isn’t open, click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Widget Inspector button, and click Layout.
In the Accessibility Description field, do any of the following:
- Add accessibility text: Enter the object’s descriptive text and press Return.
- Edit accessibility text: Select the existing text, enter the new descriptive text, and press Return.
- Remove accessibility text: Select the descriptive text and press Delete.
