USING ACROBAT X PRO 288 Accessibility, tags, and reflow • Choose View > Page Display > Single Page View, when using the TouchUp Reading Order tool. When you click the Clear Page Structure button, Acrobat clears tags from all visible pages, even pages that are only partially visible. For additional tips on working with reading order, see Donna Baker's Setting Reading Order in a PDF Document. TouchUp Reading Order options You can select TouchUp Reading Order options from the dialog box, from the pop-up menu that appears when you right-click a highlighted region, or from the Options menu in the Order tab. The TouchUp Reading Order tool includes the following options: Text Tags the selection as text. Figure Tags the selection as a figure. Text contained within a figure tag is defined as part of the image and is not read by screen readers. Form Field Tags the selection as a form field. Figure/Caption Tags a selected figure and caption as a single tag. Any text contained in the tag is defined as a caption. Useful for tagging photos and captions and preventing caption text from being incorrectly added to adjacent text blocks. Figures may require alternate text. Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3 Tags the selection as a first, second, or third level heading tag. You can convert heading tags to bookmarks to help users navigate the document. Table Tags the selection as a table after the selection is analyzed to determine the location of headings, columns, and rows. Cell Tags the selection as a table or header cell. Use this option to merge cells that are incorrectly split. Formula Tags the selection as a formula. Because speech software may handle formula tags differently from normal text, you may want to add a description using alternate text. Background Tags the selection as a background element, or artifact, removing the item from the tag tree so that it doesn't appear in the reflowed document and isn't read by screen readers. Table Editor Automatically analyzes the selected table into cells and applies the appropriate tags. The table must be tagged as a table before you can use the Table Editor command on it. Show Page Content Order Shows content elements as highlighted areas that contain numbers to indicate the reading order. Specify the highlight color by clicking the color swatch. Show Table Cells Highlights the content of individual table cells. Specify the highlight color by clicking the color swatch. Show Tables And Figures Outlines each table and figure with a crossed-out box. The box also indicates whether the element includes alternate text. Specify the box color by clicking the color swatch.
