Lists allow users to understand the structure of your document and easily process sequential or individual points. Use proper list formatting to make your lists accessible to everyone.
Learn how to easily make accessible lists in Word with MedTech’s five-minute tutorial and download the College of Medicine’s new accessible Word template.
Why can’t I just type my own bullets or numbers?
Manually typed bullets and numbers are not recognized as lists by screen readers, so users lose the important structure in your document.
