When you create your formulas, you always want to be sure you have a text alternative in Cell A1. This will make it easier for screen readers to read the information. Also, make sure you do not use any symbols for the alternative text and only use words. This is because screen readers can only read a few symbols.
Type of formula in Cell A1. Only use regular text and no symbols.
Now change the Font Color to white to match the background.
Resize cell A1 and fit your formula inside it. Now you have a formula with a hidden text alternative, but will still be read by a screen reader.
| Info |
|---|
Note: You can use this method for many formulas, including expressions. |
One more rule to follow is to make sure your individual formulas are in one cell.
| Warning |
|---|
The formulas are typed in one cell and interferes with the cell next to it. This would be very hard for a person using a screen reader to understand.   |
| Tip |
|---|
The formula is now in one cell and all of the information is given with a text description.  |
| Info |
| Note: Screen readers have trouble even with many simple symbols, such as the caret to denote exponents. So when providing the text alternative, it is very important to write it without symbols. |
