#### 34.2.1 Following WAI guidelines for images

The WAI guidelines for images are intended to provide a text equivalent for every non-text element. For more information, see:

http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG10-HTML-TECHS/#image-text-equivalent

DITA2Go provides settings for the following attributes:

alt | Short text equivalent of an image.
longdesc | Path to an HTML file containing text that describes the image.
title | Image description, for user agents that do not support longdesc.

You can provide alt and title attributes for an image either with a paragraph format or with a PI marker.
