Bear in mind that industry standard tag requirements include the need for manual checking of every aspect of the PDF after it is tagged. Automatic tagging is a time saving first step, but only the first part of a very labour intensive process. Tagging has major cost issues.

You can create an Action that will Autotag a document and perform a number of other Accessibility tasks, is that what you are looking for here?

I was told (by someone at a programming for hire website) that you need a program or plugin written in C or C++ to access the Tags Panel and that Javascript cannot do it.  At the time I was looking for a way to script certain repetitive functions in the Tags panel.  I don't know if that's true or not.

Instead I use a programmable keyboard which is helpful for some things.
