User guide

Navigation with keyboard

It is also possible to navigate this website with keyboard only. Navigation is done using the TAB key and arrow keys. Each press of the TAB key moves the focus to the next focusable element.

Enlarging content

Web browsers

To enlarge content, we recommend first using the built-in functionality of the web browser.

In all popular browsers, it is possible to zoom in and out on pages by holding down the Ctrl key (Cmd key in OS X operating system) while pressing either the + or - key. Another handy option is to use the mouse: holding down the Ctrl key while moving the mouse scroll wheel. To return to normal size, press the Ctrl and 0 keys at the same time. The page can also be enlarged from browser settings.

Separate programs

All most common operating systems include settings to magnify the content displayed on the screen.

On Windows computers, a program called Magnifier can be used, which can be turned on by navigating as follows: Settings -> Ease of Access -> Magnifier.

On Apple computers, to use zoom, navigate as follows: Apple menu -> System Settings -> Accessibility (or Universal Access) -> Zoom.

Web browser extensions

For web browsers, there are extensions enabling zoom that complement the existing functionality of the web browser. For example, for the Firefox browser, there is Zoom Page WE, which allows you to zoom in on the whole page as well as just the text. For the Chrome browser, there is Zoom for Google Chrome.

Using screen reader

Screen reader is a program that conveys what is displayed on computer screen. In particular, it is an aid for the partially-sighted.

The content presented on this website has been created according to standards that are understandable to screen readers and so that each type of visual content can be reproduced in another format. For example, informative images have textual descriptions attached, and the layout and order of structural elements takes into account the movement of the screen reader on the screen and allows information to be consumed in a logical sequence.

JAWS screen reader (Windows) with Chrome browser
VoiceOver screen reader (OS X, free, built-in) with Safari browser
