Olaf, et al,

Jenison's link (http://adod.idrc.ocad.ca/) also stated to "Create a text summary of the essential table contents. Any abbreviations used should be explained in the summary." Unless that summary is in the document body , then I presume it means to place it in the alt text. Which calls for a very brief summary, along with abbreviations.
