摘要

许多弱视用户会调整浏览器的缩放级别，以使文本阅读更舒适。响应式网站试图在视口宽度内容纳内容，但可能会出现几种类型的问题;长单词可能比视口宽，因此部分隐藏，它们可能导致较大的垂直空格，并且单词可能被不必要地分割或不正确地分割。本研究旨在深入了解响应式网页的换行问题。为了帮助识别换行问题，开发了HYPHERSPACE工具。在91个网站上进行的实验表明，与连字符有关的问题很普遍。在大约90%的网站中，过度的文字包装和过多的文字是最显著的问题。这项研究的一个启示是，网页设计师需要明确地设计窄视口。建议的工具可以帮助网页设计师识别高放大响应网页上的连字符问题。

To wrap or not to wrap? A study of how long words are split when reflowed on magnified web pages

Abstract Many low-vision users adjust the browser zoom level to make text more comfortable to read. Responsive websites attempt to fit the content within the viewport width, but several types of problems can potentially occur; long words may be wider than the viewport and thus partially hidden, they may cause large vertical space breaks, and words may be unnecessarily split or incorrectly split. This study set out to get insight into such word wrapping problems on responsive web pages. To help identify word wrapping issues, the tool HYPHERSPACE was developed. Experiments run on 91 websites suggest that hyphenation-related problems are prevalent. Excessive wrapping of words and overflowing words were the most notable problem on about 90% of the websites. One implication of this study is that web designers need to explicitly design for narrow viewports. The proposed tool can help web designers identify hyphenation problems on responsive web pages viewed with high magnification.

期刊介绍： Universal Access in the Information Society (UAIS) is an international, interdisciplinary refereed journal that solicits original research contributions addressing the accessibility, usability, and, ultimately, acceptability of Information Society Technologies by anyone, anywhere, at anytime, and through any media and device. Universal access refers to the conscious and systematic effort to proactively apply principles, methods and tools of universal design order to develop Information Society Technologies that are accessible and usable by all citizens, including the very young and the elderly and people with different types of disabilities, thus avoiding the need for a posteriori adaptations or specialized design. The journal''s unique focus is on theoretical, methodological, and empirical research, of both technological and non-technological nature, that addresses equitable access and active participation of potentially all citizens in the information society.
