Accessibility statement

Our commitment

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA across the whole site, and to go further where it helps people with low vision or limited dexterity, who make up much of our audience.

What we have done

• Readable type. Body text is set in Atkinson Hyperlegible Next, a typeface designed for readers with low vision, at a large default size. Body text contrast is above 7:1.
• Zoom and reflow. Pages work at 400% zoom and on small screens without sideways scrolling.
• Keyboard access. Everything works with a keyboard, with a clearly visible focus outline. A “Skip to content” link is the first thing on every page.
• Structure. Each page has one main heading, steps are real numbered lists, and tables have proper headers, so screen readers can navigate them.
• Not color alone. Notes, cautions and warnings always carry a written label, and step progress is stated in words.
• Motion. The one decorative animation, on the home page illustration, is switched off if your device is set to reduce motion.
• Large targets. Buttons, links in lists and tick boxes are at least 44 pixels tall.
• No time limits, no auto-playing media and no pop-ups that block reading.

Known limitations

• The home page illustration (Fig. 1) is decorative. All of its information and links are repeated in the list beside it.
• Procedures describe what Windows shows on screen. Where Windows itself has accessibility limits, we cannot change them, but we name each menu so it can be found with search or a screen reader.

Report a problem

If anything on the site is hard to read or use, email hello@pcfieldbook.info with the page address and what happened. We aim to reply within five working days and to fix confirmed problems promptly.

How we test

We check pages with automated accessibility tools, keyboard-only navigation, browser zoom, and the screen readers built into Windows and phones.
