Introduction

Finding information

To find IBM Cognos product documentation on the web, including all translated documentation, access one of the IBM Cognos Information Centers (http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/cogic/v1r0m0/index.jsp). Release Notes are published directly to Information Centers, and include links to the latest technotes and APARs.

You can also read PDF versions of the product release notes and installation guides directly from IBM Cognos product disks.

Accessibility Features

Accessibility features help users who have a physical disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to use information technology products. Because the IBM Cognos Administration component supports a wide range of IBM Cognos components, the availability of accessibility features varies by component within IBM Cognos Administration.

In IBM Cognos Administration, you can enable system-wide settings to create accessible report output. For more information, see Enable Accessible Report Output Using System-wide Settings.

IBM Cognos HTML documentation has accessibility features. PDF documents are supplemental and, as such, include no added accessibility features.
