How to easily find accessibility tags

I'm just getting into accessibility tags, and I have what I hope is an easy question. I have a pdf open, and I also have the panel showing all accessibility tags showing. Say I want to look at the accessibility tags of a table that is on page 75 of a 200-page document. When I'm on page 75, how can I click to immediately go to the tags in the tags panel for that table? I don't see any page references in the tags panel. Do I actually have to click through all of the tags until I find the right page? I haven't been able to find this online or in any of these discussion forums. But I figure there must be an easier way to do this.

I am working in Acrobat Pro 2024.002.20857 64-bit.

Thanks for any help anybody can provide!

The Tags panel is not paginated, so it's difficult to get to your page 75. Instead, do this, which is how we work with accessibility in Acrobat.

  1. Open the Content panel
  2. Click the expansion arrow at the top of the Content panel to open your document's pageinated structure
  3. Navigate to the page in question and expand it by clicking on the arrow
  4. Find the start of your table among the contents of the page
  5. Right-click on the Container for that table and choose Show in Tags Panel

 

It will jump you to, and expand, the content's tag in the Tags panel.
