Accessibility Info

Prezi's accessibility largely depends on how well content creators utilize accessibility features and follow best practices. In Prezi Video Pages, viewers cannot adjust text appearance, such as colors, text width, or line spacing, and animations cannot be disabled. Additionally, context-sensitive help is not available for video pages or embedded content. Similarly, Prezi Design does not allow users to disable animations or provide context-sensitive help on design view pages and embedded content. Prezi Video Record shares these limitations, as it does not support adjustments to text appearance, the disabling of animations, or the inclusion of context-sensitive help.
