大多数盲人文档创建者的工作主要集中在支持文档写作而不是文档格式，即使盲人作者的文档在不符合“预期”标准时经常被轻视，并且许多盲人作者依赖于有视力的人来检查他们的文档。通过了解盲人读者的期望和策略以及盲人作者在使用当前文字处理器时遇到的问题，我们为盲人作者编写了一套格式工具指南。这些准则包括：用户控制更正级别的能力、信息的及时性和直观性以及与屏幕阅读器的兼容性。然后，我们开发了一个原型，我们正在进行案例研究评估，主要是为了提出更多的指导方针。新出现的准则包括：区分与内容和格式化信息相关联的语音、记录用户偏好的能力、以及格式化项目的周围上下文的预览。
Most work on document creators for blind people mainly concentrates on supporting document writing rather than document formatting, even though blind authors' documents are often treated dismissively when they do not match "expected" standards and many blind authors rely on sighted people to check their documents. Through understanding sighted readers' expectations and strategies and problems blind authors experience with current word processors, we compiled a set of guidelines for a formatting tool for blind authors. The guidelines include: the ability for users to control the level of corrections, the timeliness and intuitiveness of the information, and the compatibility with screen readers. We then developed a prototype with which we are conducting a case study evaluation, mainly, to come up with more guidelines. Emerging guidelines include: differentiating voices associated with content and formatting information, the ability to record user preference, and a preview of the surrounding context of the formatted items.
