SUMMARY
If you use Microsoft Publisher to create a publication that is to be converted to a Web site (series of HTML documents), you can provide alternate text descriptions for your pictures. An alternate text description is a text-only description that appears in your Web browser if you choose to hide pictures, if the picture becomes damaged or moved, or if your browser is text-based.



MORE INFORMATION
To specify alternate text for a picture, follow these steps:
 * 1) Select a picture or object frame.
 * 2) On the Format menu, click Picture Frame Properties, or Object Frame Properties.
 * 3) In the Text To Display box, type the description you want to appear in place of a graphic. NOTE: The Text To Display box only appears in the Picture Frame Properties or the Object Frame Properties dialog box, if you are working on a Web publication.

For more information about Alternate Text, click the Office Assistant, type alt, click Search, and then click to view "Display Alternate Text for a picture."

NOTE: If the Assistant is hidden, click the Office Assistant button on the Standard toolbar. If Microsoft Help is not installed on your computer, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
