Question

Tagged PDF splits single paragraph into multiple [P] tags

I’m facing an issue with Tagged PDF export from InDesign.

A single paragraph (with no hard returns or forced line breaks) is getting split into multiple [P] tags — each line appears as a separate paragraph in tools like PDFix and Acrobat Tags panel.

Details:

Text is continuous in one frame
No soft returns (Shift+Enter) or manual breaks
Using standard paragraph styles
Issue appears only after PDF export

Expected:
→ One [P] tag for the full paragraph

Actual:
→ Each line exported as separate [P] tags

Has anyone encountered this? Is this related to composer settings or a known tagging issue?

Thanks in advance!
