Same data. A label at true physical size, a fax page as the machine prints it, and the
same fax written for a screen reader.
1 · 4×6 label, true size
This is 4 inches by 6 inches, actually — CSS inches are
physical units. Hold a real label up to your screen and it matches. Scroll sideways if it
overflows; that is the label being wider than your phone, not a layout bug.

2 · The fax page
Why two versions. The printed page is monospace art — rules made of equals
signs, columns made of spaces. A screen reader announces every one of those as punctuation.
So the printed page is marked decorative, and the version below carries the same facts as
real headings and labelled fields. VoiceOver reads it as a document, not as noise.

Verify before you act
A fax header can be set to any value by the sending machine. Nothing printed
on this page proves who sent it. If this document asks you to move money, release records,
change an account, or grant access, telephone the sender and confirm with a person before
acting. We would rather take the call.
3 · Why this matters
The label, the printed fax and the spoken fax come from the same source.
MPE renders it to exact physical geometry for a machine, and to semantic structure for a
person listening. Neither is a downgrade of the other.
