A Elements appear in the Structure pane. B Tag markers surround text to which tags have been applied.

When tagging page items, note the following:

• Text frames must be tagged before you can tag the text inside them.

• You can apply only one tag to a frame.

• Threaded text frames share a single tag, which applies to all text in the thread, including overset text.

• When you tag text within a tagged element (for example, when you tag a paragraph within a tagged story), the text

appears as a child element of an existing element in the Structure pane.

• When you tag an element within a frame with the Autotag button, InCopy automatically tags the frame using the

tag specified in the Tagging Preset Options dialog box.

Tag text within a text frame

1

Choose View > Layout View.

2

Make sure that the text frame in which the text appears is tagged. (If the frame isn’t tagged when you try to tag text
within the frame, InCopy tags the story using default tags.)

3

Do one of the following:

• Using the Type tool

, select text within a text frame, and then click a tag in the Tags panel. If you select all of

the text within the frame, the tag is applied to the frame, not to the block of text (unless you’ve selected Add Tag
in the Tags panel).

• Select the text frame, table, table cells, or image that you want to tag, and click the Autotag icon in the Tags panel

to apply a default tag. (See

Specify Autotag defaults

.)

• Automatically tag text to which paragraph or character styles have been applied using the Map Styles To Tags

command.

Tag text in tables

When you tag a table for export to XML, you create a table element as well as one cell element for each cell in the table.
The cell elements are child elements of the table element and are created automatically.

1

Choose View > Layout View.

2

Click in the table and choose Table > Select > Table.

3

Select a tag for the table in the Tags panel.

InCopy creates a cell element for each cell in the table (you can display them in the Structure pane). The tag applied
to table cell elements depends on your tagging present options.

4

If needed, tag table cells with a different tag.
