A family tree is usually depicted as names of people, perhaps with some amount of information about them, connected by lines. It is a very visual representation, kind of like a pie chart. I don't know about Braille users, but I don't see how such a depiction could be made to make any sense to the user of a screen reader with synthetic voice. A graph or pie chart requires description and I would think a family tree would too.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] 5 different views of a single page?


I have scanned a single page 3 or more different times without moving the
book on the scanner.

1. It comes up blank which I know isn't true based on below results.
2. I get scrambled text that has the header (I think) at the top of the
page.
3. I get scrambled text with the header at the bottom of the page.
4. I get some valid text with no header/footer.
5. I get some valid text with the header/footer in the middle of the text
mixing up its natural flow.



This is a family tree outline of an author. I don't know if there are images
or not. I also don't know if the family tree is in a table or not. How would
I go about fixing the page? I can send a sighted person on the list the
original scanned image of the page if needed.
