MAC SPECIAL: Mail Merge video: How to do a Mail Merge in Microsoft® Word for Mac® 2016. Before You View Know This:

  1. Video uses Excel instead of Word as the source for the labels. You will use Word.
  2. Start watching at 0:28 seconds to avoid the Excel set-up.
  3. At 0:54 selecting labels is discussed. You need Avery US Letter and then choose number 5160.
  4. The video tells you to turn on view gridlines. You do not need to do this.
  5. Hopefully this video will help.

      3. Understandable - Information and the operation of user interface must be understandable.
      4. Robust - Content must be robust enough that it can be interpreted reliably by a wide variety of user agents, including assistive technologies.
  • Understanding Conformance for Web Accessibility - Meeting or satisfying the WCAG requirements. NOTE: IU wishes to always meet level AA. It is the most recommended conformance level across post-secondary institutions. (Taken from Introduction to WCAG 2.0 training at IU.)

Below information taken from Introduction to WCAG 2.0 training at IU

WCAG - Here are a few resources to help you dig deeper into the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines:

What is WCAG?

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 (WCAG 2.0) are an internationally recognized set of accessibility guidelines for addressing the accessibility of web based technologies. The WCAG 2.0 guidelines and the experience gained by UITS's web accessibility staff over the last 15 years form the basis of the top ten web accessibility tips presented in this course.
