5 Select a tag in the Tags panel. Note the following suggested uses for certain imported tags:

Artifact

The Artifact tag lets you hide page items, such as page numbers or unimportant objects, when viewing the

exported PDF file in Reflow view, which displays only tagged items; see your Adobe Acrobat documentation. This is
especially useful for viewing PDF files on a handheld device or in other PDF readers.

Cell

Use this tag for table cells.

Figure

Use this tag for placed graphics. The Figure tag is applied to all untagged graphics placed in your document

when you choose Add Untagged Items.

Paragraph tags (P, H, H1–H6)

These tags have no effect on the exported PDF text when viewed in Reflow view.

However, they can be useful in some situations when exporting a PDF file to HTML format.

Story

Use this tag for stories. The Story tag is applied to all untagged text frames when you choose Add Untagged

Items. For example, suppose you have an InDesign document formatted with three paragraph styles: Head1, Head2,
and Body. First, map these paragraph styles to the H1, H2, and P tags, respectively. Next, export to PDF. Finally, when
you export the PDF document to HTML or XML in Acrobat, the paragraphs tagged as H1, H2, and P will display
appropriately (such as with large bold letters in H1) in a web browser. For information on exporting the PDF
document to

HTML or XML, see your Adobe Acrobat documentation.
