PAC 3 "Possibly inappropriate use of "quote" structure element.

Question

Hi there,

I ran my pdf through the PAC 3 accessibility checker, and everything is passing except for an error that says "Possibly inappropriate use of a "Quote" Structure. Does anyone know what the issue could be? At first I thought it was because I had a separate text box for the quote, and that's why i was getting an error message, but it's still happening when I placed the quote in an already existing text box. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Per the PDF/UA-1 standard, is an inline text-level tag and doesn't encase an entire paragraph. It's usually nested inside a

tag. But

is a block-level tag for an entire paragraph. Samples of the both:
John said, let's go to lunch and the group headed to the cafe.
{The quote is within the sentence or paragraph.}
During his speech to the US Congress, Ukranian President Zelensky said:
{new paragraph} Right now, the destiny of our country is being decided, the destiny of our people, whether Ukrainians will be free, whether they will be able to preserve their democracy.
Switch your tag from to
and see if it passes.
