This lesson covers how to add and edit metadata to your document, which is simply information about the document and its creator. You can access and modify this metadata by clicking the file tab in the ribbon to open the backstage view, then clicking the info button. In the properties section, you can see a list of information about your document. By clicking to the right of a title, a textbox will appear allowing you to add, edit, or remove editable information. Some fields like size, pages, words, total editing time, and the template are not editable.

Clearly Identify Required Form Fields Put the word required in the . Sighted users see the word and screen reader users can hear the word when the label is read to them. Put instructions above the form, use an asterisk in the , and use the aria-required=true attribute.
Best Practice Required fields should be indicated with either a symbol or text, not just color. When providing an indicator for a required field, it should be placed right before the form field. This allows a screen reader to read the indicator to a screen reader user right before the user activates the field.
If you want to make an input mandatory to be entered by the user, you can use the required attribute. This attribute can be used with any input type such as email, URL, text, file, password, checkbox, radio, etc. This can help to make any input field mandatory.
To set the field as read-only, required or not required, do the following: Double-click a selected form field to open the Properties window. In the General tab, To set the field as read only, select Read Only. To set the field as mandatory to fill, select Required. Click Close.
Click in your Word document wherever you wish to insert a Form Field. On the Legacy Forms menu click the first icon to insert a Form Field. Right-click on the Form Field and select Properties. Then provide a name for the field in the Bookmark section.
How to indicate a required field Provide the required text in the label. Provide a graphic * image in the label with appropriate alt text. Providing star (asterisk) symbol. Use of color to identify if a form control is required. Providing HTML5 ARIA required attributes.
Visibly indicate the required fields only, typically with an asterisk or the word required in the label. Visibly indicate the optional fields only, typically with the word optional in the label.
Use asterisks to indicate required fields? Another common approach seen in forms is to mark the mandatory fields with an asterisk and not mark the optional fields. While an asterisk to the left of the label makes it easy to see, it assumes a user understands what this means.
