As someone else mentioned, you should do that manually... well maybe
you could do it semiautomatically, assuming the same graphic appears
in multiple places -- but you definitely need to know *what* alt text
you are adding to *which* image. I mean, if you're gonna put a name
tag on everyone in the room whose name is John, you need to make sure
you don't tag Phil with the name John.

If they're unique, how can you automate it? Do you have some kind of
data document from which you could pull the unique text? It doesn't
materialize out of thin air....
