To check a document or presentation for accessibility, Microsoft 365 provides a built-in accessibility feature.

  • Select the Review tab.
  • Click on Check Accessibility.

 

  • If there are accessibility issues, they will appear Accessibility pane to the right of your document window.

 

NOTE: The Accessibility Checker in the online version of Microsoft 365 is limited. While it can identify issues, it does not suggest fixes. It is recommended that you make corrections to the accessibility issues in the Desktop version of Microsoft 365 or Office 2019.
