There should be a clear information hierarchy so that all readers can navigate through the content easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When content is organized logically, assistive technology like screen readers can interpret and present the information in a coherent manner. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note: <\/strong>Screen readers are commonly used by people with visual impairments and it requires structured content to provide a meaningful reading experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An easy way to structure your content is to use headings, subheadings, and lists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But sometimes this is not enough as a screen reader might still get the reading order incorrect and require you to do manual remediation work.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Venngage&#8217;s <a

matters for accessibility because it impacts how easily individuals can read and comprehend text, especially people living with visual and cognitive disabilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some font styles are more legible than others, but the general rule is to avoid decorative fonts that are harder to read for people living with dyslexia or visual impairments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sans-serif fonts like Arial are often more accessible than serif variants like Georgia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, maintain a consistent font style throughout your brochure to enhance comprehension and reduce cognitive load. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Changing font styles frequently can disrupt the flow of reading and make it more challenging to follow the content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last but not least, make sure your fonts are big enough for people with different vision abilities to see. A good rule of thumb to follow is a minimum body text size of 16px. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some examples of accessible brochures that get fonts right: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

creating accessible brochures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to think of alt text is a description of visual content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This ensures individuals living with visual disabilities using

visually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some key points to keep in mind when writing alt text:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Be concise<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Be descriptive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provide

colors adjacent to each other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maintaining appropriate color contrast between text and background is fundamental to accessible brochures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It ensures that text and other visual elements stand out clearly, making content easier to read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also affects how legible and readable text and images are, especially for individuals with visual impairments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, be careful with how you use colors as it should never be the sole means of conveying information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some individuals may not perceive colors or at all, so always include text-based alternatives for color-coded content to make accessible brochures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some examples of accessible brochures with great color contrast:

navigation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not uncommon for brochures to include CTAs or clickable links for users. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When adding these types of links to your brochure, use descriptive and meaningful anchor text that conveys the purpose or destination of the link. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Avoid generic phrases like &#8220;Click Here&#8221; or &#8220;Read More.&#8221; Instead, provide context within the link text, making it clear where the link leads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, instead of &#8220;Click here for more information,&#8221; use &#8220;Read our comprehensive guide on accessible design.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From an accessibility standpoint, the second link text is beneficial for individuals using screen readers as its purpose is clear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides meaningful anchor links, accessible brochures should also be keyboard navigation-friendly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is vital for individuals who rely on the keyboard to navigate due to mobility impairments preventing them from using screen readers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just as an FYI, designs created in Venngage, including accessible brochures support keyboard navigation. <\/p>\n\n\n<div

ACCESSIBLE BROCHURE<\/b><\/button><\/a><\/center>&nbsp;\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"mistakes\">Common accessible brochure mistakes&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Small text size<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To make brochures helpful, designers sometimes reduce text size to fit in as much content as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this can create accessibility barriers for people with visual impairments as this will cause them to struggle to read tiny text, even with assistive technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, for people with low vision who rely on screen magnifiers, small text sizes can become pixelated when magnified. This defeats the purpose of assistive tools meant to enhance readability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For people with severe vision impairment, when the text size is too small, screen readers might skip it entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result?  An inaccessible brochure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Small text size also affects older people with bad eyesight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Considering that brochures are often used to provide important information such as healthcare instructions or event details, inaccessible text size can impact this group negatively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Getting colors wrong<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Brochures are often colorful to draw attention&#8230;and they should be! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First impressions matter, but going over the top with bright contrasts or using color to convey meaning goes against <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/blog\/inclusive-design\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">inclusive design<\/a> and excludes people, such as those living with <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/blog\/color-blind-design\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">color blindness<\/a> or low vision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid accessibility challenges in your brochures, here&#8217;s what you need to do:   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Colors<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maintain a strong contrast between text and background colors to enhance readability. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Success Criterion 1.4.3 of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/WCAG22\/#contrast-minimum\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WCAG 2.2<\/a> suggests that regular text should have a minimum contrast ratio of 4.5:1 , while larger text should have a minimum ratio of 3:1 to make <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/blog\/accessible-documents\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accessible documents. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same principle applies to brochures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One easy method to check whether your brochure meets WCAG requirements is to use Venngage&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/tools\/color-contrast-checker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">WCAG Color Contrast Checker<\/a> to check the contrast ratio of text\/image and background colors in a few clicks.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/help.venngage.com\/hc\/article_attachments\/18419595886477\" alt=\"venngage wcag color contrast checker tool \" style=\"box-shadow: 0 1px 4px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 0 6px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 2px 2px -2px rgb(0 0 0 \/ 15%);\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Besides contrast, also make sure your brochure uses <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/blog\/accessible-colors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accessible colors<\/a> that are distinguishable by individuals with color blindness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re having a hard time selecting the right palette, tools like our <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/tools\/accessible-color-palette-generator\">Accessible Color Palette Generator<\/a> can help you pick beautiful color combinations that everyone can appreciate and understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can either enter a Hex code and let the tool pick a suitable combination or get a random palette. The choice is yours!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/help.venngage.com\/hc\/article_attachments\/11297120110221\" alt=\"venngage accessible color palette generator tool \" style=\"box-shadow: 0 1px 4px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 0 6px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 2px 2px -2px rgb(0 0 0 \/ 15%);\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:  <\/strong>Even if you have an accessible color palette, you should provide text alternatives in areas where color is used to convey meaning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not sure how your design looks to people living with color blindness?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/tools\/color-blind-simulator\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Color Blind Simulator<\/a> lets you test designs to see how they look to people with visual impairments.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/help.venngage.com\/hc\/article_attachments\/11012935862669\" alt=\"venngage color blind simulator tool \" style=\"box-shadow: 0 1px 4px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 0 6px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 2px 2px -2px rgb(0 0 0 \/ 15%);\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Generally, testing brochures for accessibility and remediating designs to ensure compliance is costly and time-consuming.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But if you use Venngage&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/blog\/accessible-design\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Accessible Design Tool<\/a> from the start, you can avoid this headache. <a href=\"https:\/\/infograph.venngage.com\/register\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sign-up<\/a> is always free as our <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/accessible\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accessible templates<\/a>, but some require a small monthly fee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use of complicated language&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In an effort to convey information effectively, many brochure designers often fall into the trap of using complicated language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an accessibility barrier for people living with cognitive disabilities or for people who speak English as a second language. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s an example of what I mean by complex language:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p> &#8220;The convoluted and multifaceted intricacies of the financial market, juxtaposed with the intricate dynamics of international trade agreements, are critical factors contributing to the overall economic landscape.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you catch that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you didn&#8217;t, would you continue reading a brochure? Probably not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stick to using plain language and simplifying content to make your brochure accessible. The trick is to use simple words, clear sentence structures, and visual aids when appropriate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, taking the same sentence from above, you could rewrite it as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>&#8220;The way the financial market works and international trade agreements affect the economy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Much better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other points to keep in mind include to ensure accessible copy include: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sentence structure<\/strong>: Opt for shorter sentences and paragraphs, which facilitate comprehension and readability.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Visual aids<\/strong>: Incorporate visual aids, such as images or icons, to supplement textual information, aiding understanding for individuals who may struggle with written content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"venngage\">How to make accessible brochures with Venngage&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1 \u2013 Sign up for a free Venngage account<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Start by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/infograph.venngage.com\/register\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">signing up<\/a>&nbsp;for a Venngage account using your email, Gmail or Facebook account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, it\u2019s completely free!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/infograph.venngage.com\/register\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"518\" src=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2023\/09\/venngage-sign-up.png\" alt=\"venngage registration\" class=\"wp-image-77542\" style=\"box-shadow: 0 1px 4px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 0 6px 0 rgb(0 0 0 \/ 10%), 0 2px 2px -2px rgb(0 0 0 \/ 15%);\" srcset=\"https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2023\/09\/venngage-sign-up.png 1024w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2023\/09\/venngage-sign-up-300x152.png 300w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2023\/09\/venngage-sign-up-768x389.png 768w, https:\/\/venngage-wordpress.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2023\/09\/venngage-sign-up-730x369.png 730w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2 \u2013 Select an accessible template from our library<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides the examples in this post, you\u2019ll find many types of accessible brochures and other <a href=\"https:\/\/venngage.com\/templates\/accessible\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">accessible templates<\/a> in our library.
