Section 5.3: Labels on Charts and Graphs
Data labels are very important for accessibility purposes. You should always include a title, axis labels, data labels, and any other relevant labels that make the graph easy to understand. If data labels are not present, then readers will have fewer queues to help them read the information. Charts, tables, and graphs cannot be read by screen readers without their labels, so always add them.

This table has the data labels. Now a reader with low vision can still know what each category stands for without needing color. |
After you have completed your chart or graph, be sure it has an alt text. You can make one by right clicking on the chart and clicking the Edit Alt Text button. In the alt text panel, explain your chart or graph in less than 150 characters. You can also include a long description in addition to the alt text if 150 characters is not enough.
