Why tags are important
Tagging is essential for PDF accessibility. Tags establish logical reading order, provide a means for indicating structure and type, and adding alternative text descriptions to non-text elements for elements in the PDF document.
The Tags Panel can reveal the accessibility of a PDF:
- if all the text and images can be interpreted by a screen-reader
- document reading order
The Tags Panel can also edit the accessibility of a PDF:
- correct table tags
- change tag type
- reorder tag sequence
At the end of this module, you should be able to:
- Determine if a PDF has tags.
- Evaluate if tags are in logical reading order.
- Remediate a given inaccessible PDF.
