This document is available in an HTML version that is specialized for accessibility. You can navigate the HTML with an adaptive technology such as a screen reader, or view it with a screen enlarger.
Sybase IQ 12.6 and the HTML documentation have been tested for compliance with U.S. government Section 508 Accessibility requirements. Documents that comply with Section 508 generally also meet non-U.S. accessibility guidelines, such as the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) guidelines for Web sites.
For Section 508 compliant core documentation, see your Sybooks CD or the Infocenter Web site.
For Section 508 compliant installation guides and release bulletins, see the HTML files on your Getting Started CD.
The online help for this product is also provided as HTML-based JavaHelp, which you can navigate using a screen reader.
For information about accessibility support in the Sybase IQ plug-in for Sybase Central, see “Using accessibility features” in Introduction to Sybase IQ. The online help for this product, which you can navigate using a screen reader, also describes accessibility features, including Sybase Central keyboard shortcuts and using this product without a mouse.
For information about how Sybase supports accessibility, see Sybase Accessibility. The Sybase Accessibility site includes links to information on Section 508 and W3C standards, and Section 508 compliance statements for Sybase IQ and other Sybase products.
You might need to configure your accessibility tool
for optimal use. Some screen readers pronounce text based on its
case; for example, they pronounce ALL UPPERCASE TEXT as initials,
and MixedCase Text as words. You might find it helpful to configure
your tool to announce syntax conventions, or to pronounce certain
characters or punctuation such as underscore. Consult the documentation
for your tool. See the following table for pronunciation guidelines
for important terms.
