Creating new highlighted regions for page content

You can use the TouchUp Reading Order tool to create tags in untagged PDF documents
or to add new tags to an existing structure. However, manual tagging doesn't provide the
same level of detail to the tagging structure as the Add Tags To Document command,
such as paragraphs, bulleted and numbered lists, line breaks, and hyphens. Before you
clear the existing structure, make sure that manual tagging is your only recourse. (See

Tagging Adobe PDF documents for accessibility

.)

To create a new tagged region of page content:

1. Using the TouchUp Reading Order tool, drag in the document pane to select a region of

the page that contains one type of content (for example, a text block).

2. Do one of the following:

To add more page content to the current selection, Shift-drag.

To remove page content from the current selection, press Ctrl (Windows) or Command
(Mac OS) and drag.

3. Click the appropriate button in the dialog box to specify the tag type. (See

TouchUp

Reading Order options

.)

4. Repeat steps 1-3 as necessary to tag all page content.
