How do I turn off the Alt Text warning on images with no text?

AliceWyman beäntwurde

Please appreciate that alternative text is not always applicable.

I use the Add Image button to tick off things on a list (add image of a tick) - for my own personal use, not suitable for webviewing. Halfway through the task these Alt Text warnings just obliterate my view of the document; my attempts to not have to print it, or not have to use Adobe, are thwarted.

I'm looking at a page of grey blocks that contain a triangle which in turn contains an exclamation mark, and I can no longer see the actual document behind them.

Sorry if I've posted in the wrong place. I posted this under Thunderbird in error, whatever that is, and I reposted it under Firefox, but that;s gone. So if you find a duplicate question, I'm sorry.

Why is this on Thunderbird again??? I posted it on Firefox! Methinks the problem isn't me.

I'll move this back to the Firefox forum.

If this is about Alt Text warnings in the Firefox PDF viewer, maybe this article will help: Add alt text to images in your PDFs using Firefox

If not, can you add more detail about the "Add image" problem, such as the type of document?

Thank you, Alice. I posted this before and it ended up in the Thunderbird forum. This one is me trying to do re-post it in the FIREFOX forum, and voila - it ends up on Thunderbird.

Nevertheless, someone has rescued me and provided me with a solution. This thread is redundant. If you can just delete it, that would be sterling. But then please repost the hyperlink you sent me, by replying on the first post I made, which culminates in the solution.
