What I have done is I’ve gone into Microsoft Word and pasted the picture and then a description of the picture below the photo. I know there’s got to be a way to embed it somehow I haven’t figured that out myself. Would love to learn how to do that I do very well with written instructions.

I would like to respond with some suggestions or guidance on how the alt-text can be made visible and accessible. Does anyone know of a good resource for this, or a way I can describe to this person how to make the text visible?
