Power Point Alt Tags
Hi AJ
From what you have shown, and from what I understand, you've applied the Alt text correctly.
I don't know why your software isn't picking up on the text when you run it although I don't personally use any accessible technologies and can't really test it for you.
It might be worth testing the presentation on other readers if you haven't already tried, otherwise I don't have the answer that you seek.
You've got me on this one!
Good luck friend!

No worries, and I appreciate your attempts.
I'm starting to think I'm asking the wrong questio. I tried a separate computer and it worked with a similar setup, so I'm wondering now if it's a setting I have set somewhere in my local instance of PPT on my work computer. Works fine on my personal one though.

You'd probably have to recreate the slide show, but it might be a workaround to your issue.
I suggest you try with one or two slides and see if the reader works on that?
Cheers
