This specification provides guidelines for Web authoring tool developers.
Its purpose is two-fold: to assist developers in designing authoring tools
that produce accessible Web content and to assist developers in creating an
accessible authoring interface.
Authoring tools can enable, encourage, and assist users
("authors") in the creation of accessible Web content through
prompts, alerts, checking and repair functions, help files and automated
tools. It is just as important that all people be able to author content as
it is for all people to have access to it. The tools used to create this
information must therefore be accessible themselves. Adoption of these
guidelines will contribute to the proliferation of Web content that can be
read by a broader range of readers and authoring tools that can be used by
a broader range of authors.
