Topic 7 Images: How are icons tested for 7.A B and 7.E

Questions:

1. How should we determine that an image, such as a “company icon”, is it a meaningful image tested under 7.A? Does the format of a company icon matter?

2. If the “logo” has text is that tested for 7E, 1.4.5-image-of-text?

Answer 1: You must consider whether any image is decorative. A logo is never a decorative image as it provides authentication of content for a web page.

Answer 2: The display of the text is part of the “branding” of the logo and any text associated with a logo image would not be tested for 7.E, 1.4.5-image-of-text.
