Changing Text Sizes
This site uses CSS relative font sizes, compatible with the user-specified 'text size' option in visual browsers.

Text size Icons
Following different options are provided in the form of icons which are available on the top of each page:
Links and Images
Necessary links were assigned 'TITLE' attributes to describe the target in greater detail. Users of assistive technology may wish to set screen reader options to take full advantage of this feature.
Images used in this site include a descriptive 'ALT' attribute. Those images which are purely decorative or used for layout include a null 'ALT' attribute.
Tables
Screen reader table functions within screen readers may be used on this site. The tables are properly coded to take advantage these functions. Example: Using JAWS in Internet Explorer use Alt+Ctrl+Up or Down Arrow to properly read a table with table headers.

Changing the contrast scheme refers to applying a suitable background and text color that ensures clear readability. There are two options provided to change the contrast scheme. These are:
High contrast: Applies black color as the background and suitable colors to the foreground text on the screen to improve readability
Standard contrast: applies white color as the background and black color to the foreground text to set the default contrast.
