At the top, enter the document title. When exported as an accessible PDF, this information will automatically be transferred to the PDF as required metadata and saved. To add a document title in InDesign, from the File drop down menu select File Info…, this will open up the file information dialogue box. InDesign requires a document title for accessibility. To add a new title, delete the text and enter a unique title that communicates the topic of the document. Located in the upper left corner of the window is a clickable field, if creating a new document, this field will display ‘Untitled document.’ Adding a cursor to this file will automatically add the first few lines of text from the body of the document, assigning it as the document title. Google Docs provides the ability to add a unique title to a document. Clicking on the summary tab will reveal the title field, enter a title that is meaningful and communicates the overall topic of the document. To add a title to Microsoft Word and PowerPoint, scroll down from the File drop-down menu and select “Properties…,” this will display the properties window. This should not be confused with the main heading of the document, which appears within the document (for more about headings, see Headings in documents). Titles are typically defined in a Document Properties or similar dialog, separate from the document itself.

For an overview of this issue, see Titles in our IT Accessibility Checklist.
