FWIW, vis: everybody "does their own thing," we had a book that passed 3 different international standard accessibility checks, right?

But did it pass this one college's? Noooooooooooooooooooo, it didn't. I forget now what it was, that they were all up in the high hairy eyeball about,but we had to add something that made NO sense, to pass their internal "accessibility check." It took myriad passes with this custom-designed, in-house tool.

You cannot assume that using Standard A will mean that everybody and their brother will sign off on those particular sets of standards.

@fdwojo: And as far as "since you make your own eBooks," hey, that's what everybody here is doing. Some of us, for other folks, too.

All we can ALL do is muddle along, doing the best we can with inconsistent standards which are then even more inconsistently applied and adopted.

In my humble opinion, i ≠ em and b ≠ strong. When you're having something read aloud to you, they are different.

Offered FWIW.
