  • Abstract
    The paper deals with problems that people with special needs have when using information technology products. Many software developers are not even aware of the problem, although people with disabilities nowadays represent a considerably market share. In recent times, more accessible software design is encouraged also by the national laws. The aim of this paper is to point out the difficulties and obstacles that most software applications pose to the disabled people and to seek for the guidelines on accessible software design
