Optional content

Navigation with screen reader 

With the screen reader, the website can be navigated smoothly, facilitating interaction. This may include clear descriptions for icons and buttons, helpful instructions and use of labels to complete forms, and alternative text for images.

The most common screen readers are: 

  • On Windows: JAWS or NVDA. JAWS is usually activated with Insert + J, and NVDA with Ctrl + Alt + N.
  • On Mac: VoiceOver. Usually activated by pressing Command + F5 or Command + Fn + F5 on some keyboards.

Keyboard navigation

Many users may prefer keyboard navigation and that is why we strive to make our website keyboard navigable. They will be able to move between items using the Tab key to move forward, Shift+Tab to move backward, open and close menus with the arrow keys, Enter or spacebar to select options.

 

Additional settings

To enhance your experience on our website, we offer some additional tips and tools that you can use to adjust the presentation of content to suit your needs.

  • Using browser zoom: Browser zoom is a useful tool to improve the readability of on-screen content. By zooming in, you can enlarge the size of text, images and other elements. You can adjust the zoom level in most browsers by pressing Ctrl and + (or Cmd and + on Mac) to zoom in, and Ctrl and – (or Cmd and – on Mac) to zoom out. This option allows you to customize the display of our site without loss of content and functionality.

  • Use of extensions: As an example, in Chrome it is possible to install the extension “Text Spacing Editor” which allows you to adjust to your preference the following properties: line height, letter spacing, inter-word and inter-paragraph spacing, helping people with low vision or dyslexia to see larger spacing. Another extension for Chrome is “Keyboard shortcuts” which allows you to set custom keyboard shortcuts.

  • High contrast mode and other visual adjustments: Depending on the operating system you are using, you can activate the high contrast mode or adjust other visual aspects to improve the visibility of the elements on the screen. On Windows, you can activate high contrast by pressing Alt + Shift + Print Screen. On Mac, you can adjust the grayscale or invert colors from the System Preferences, in the Accessibility section.

  • Accessibility settings in the browser: Many browsers have accessibility options that allow you to customize the experience. Chrome provides this through accessibility settings where you can adjust text size, enable an integrated screen reader and modify cursor behavior. Firefox provides settings to change text size and enable high-contrast themes.

  • Custom keyboard shortcuts: Many browsers and operating systems allow the creation of custom keyboard shortcuts to facilitate access to specific functions. This can be useful to speed up navigation.

  • Dictation and speech recognition tools: For users who need to use voice commands to navigate the site, it will be helpful to use dictation and speech recognition tools built into your operating system. Windows offers a dictation and voice control feature that is usually activated from Settings > Accessibility > Dictation. Mac has voice dictation which can usually be activated from System Preferences > Keyboard > Dictation.
