Hi Alyssa. For the Text on Image image type, can you tell me if the screenreader will read the text? Or should I provide alt text? Thanks!
Hi Claire! Great questions!
Yes, the screen reader will read the text of a Text on Image block.
Please note:
- The positioning of the text will affect the order if it's read first or last depending on if it's on the left or right of the image, respectively.
- Even with text content, the screen reader will still look for alt text for the image.
- If there are images in these blocks that don’t have alt text, screen readers ignore the tag and just announce them as images or read the file name.
If you don't want them to be announced as just "Image" or the "filename", please provide alt text to describe the image properly.
Hope that helps!
