25.2.3 Assigning WAI image attributes with custom markers

You can use markers to provide text equivalents of graphic images. The attribute value in the text of a marker applies to the next anchored frame in a flow after the marker. Each marker name must start with Graph and end with the name of the attribute. Valid marker names are as follows

GraphAlt	Short text equivalent of image; adds alt attribute.
GraphLongdesc	Path to file with image description; adds longdesc attribute.
GraphTitle	Long text description of image; adds title attribute.

For example, to provide an alt attribute for each graphic:marker

1. Create a FrameMaker marker type named GraphAlt.

2. For each graphic image:

2.1. Place a GraphAlt marker just before the image.

2.2. Type the text equivalent in the Marker dialog.

2.3. Click New Marker.
