1 Normative Requirements

The following information is excerpted from the W3C WCAG site.

Guideline: 5.1 Interpreting Normative Requirements

The main content of WCAG 2.1 is normative and defines requirements that impact conformance claims. Introductory material, appendices, sections marked as “non-normative”, diagrams, examples, and notes are informative (non-normative). Non-normative material provides advisory information to help interpret the guidelines but does not create requirements that impact a conformance claim.

What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Typical sample text is shown below.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse accumsan rutrum consectetur. Vivamus eu ex quis leo posuere convallis. Nunc laoreet velit sed ullamcorper mollis. Mauris porta consequat tortor aliquet maximus. Quisque sed purus condimentum orci sodales aliquam non vel tellus. Praesent lorem arcu, scelerisque a semper at, iaculis eget purus. Etiam ullamcorper orci a porttitor sodales. Nullam tincidunt nibh et hendrerit auctor. Quisque vitae quam ut lorem vehicula condimentum. In commodo cursus elit, non volutpat lectus sagittis non.
