Charts and Photos
Charts, photos, and other graphic images must be submitted
with specific information. These requirements include—
- "Alt" tags. The Federal Government
requires that "alt" (alternative) tags accompany
all graphic images on the Web. An "alt" tag is brief
text that describes an image when the cursor rolls over it. See
Accessibility and 508 Compliance for
additional information.
- Captions. Keep
captions brief (approximately 20–25 words) and use keywords
as appropriate.
- Photo credit information. Include the name
of the person who took the photo, who owns the photo, and when
it was taken.
Submit tables and graphs in separate electronic files because
they are often created in specialized software. Also provide printouts
of each.
