Bug ID: 142356
Summary: [accessibility] Save as HTML includes caption inside
image
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 7.0.4.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: stephane.guillou at member.fsf.org
Description:
In this document, a caption of a picture is exported together with the picture,
and is therefore not readable by a screen reader for sight-impaired users.
This is a very concerning accessibility shortcoming.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open attached ODT (same document as in bug 109334
2. File > Save as > HTML
Actual Results:
The resulting HTML file contains a picture with the caption integrated into it.
No screen reader can pick this up, an OCR tool should be used instead.
Expected Results:
The caption is exported as a proper caption, using for example the <figcaption>
tag, as described here: https://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_figcaption.asp
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Interestingly, this does not happen with a freshly created document. Also, an
XHTML export has the caption as text.
Version: 7.2.0.0.alpha0+ / LibreOffice Community
