Section 11: Repairing reading order and basic tagging problems
Four basic techniques you must know to fix reading order problems
Most repairs that you make by using the TouchUp Reading Order tool require that you know how to use the tool and
the Order tab to do the following four tasks, which are explained below:
Select highlighted regions
Select content on the page
Apply a new tag to a selection
Change the reading order (in the Order tab)
The TouchUp Reading Order tool does not include an Undo command, so you may want to save the document (or
a copy of it) before you use the tool to make drastic changes. To restore the Adobe PDF document to the most
recently saved state, choose File > Revert.
Always show only one page at a time when you use the TouchUp Reading Order tool (choose View > Page Display >
Single Page). Any time that you click the Clear Structure button (deliberately or not), Acrobat clears the tags of all
pages that are visible at the time—even pages that are only partially visible.
Selecting highlighted regions
You must be able to select highlighted regions so that you can apply new tags to regions, reorder regions, and remove
regions from the reading order. You can select highlighted regions on the page or in the Order tab. Selecting them in
the Order tab can help you locate and select a small or obscured highlighted region on the page. You may want to
zoom in to higher magnifications to select a specific region from among many in the page.
To select a highlighted region on the page:
1
Select the TouchUp Reading Order tool.
2
In the document pane, click the number that is in the upper left corner of a highlighted region (the cursor becomes
a hand). If the Order tab is open, Acrobat highlights the corresponding entry in the tab.
3
To select multiple regions at once on the page, press Shift, Ctrl (Windows), or Command (Mac OS) as you click
the numbers of the highlighted regions.
