Adding supplementary information to tags

Some tagged Adobe PDF documents may not contain all the information necessary to
make the document contents fully flexible. For example, if you want to make the
document available to a screen reader, the PDF document should contain alternate text for
figures, language properties for portions of the text that use a different language than the
default language for the document, and an expansion text for abbreviations. Designating
the appropriate language for different text elements ensures that the correct characters are
used when you reuse the document for another purpose and that it is spell-checked with
the correct dictionary.

You can add alternate text and multiple languages to a tag from the Tags tab. (If only one
language is required, choose the language in the Document Properties instead.) You can
also add alternate text by using the TouchUp Reading Order tool. (See

Adding alternate text for a figure

and then choose Find Tag From Selection from the Options menu to locate the text in the
tag tree.

Note: If the abbreviation includes additional text, cut the additional text and place it in a
new <Span> child tag within the same <Span> parent tag.
