MSWord 2016 - tagging conversion issue in PDF

[Minka316]

HI

I recently upgraded to MSWord 2016. I've noticed that when I convert a Word file into PDF the Heading tags are all now tagging as a paragraph tag.  Using Styles in MSWord, I tag the headings as heading 1 or heading 2 etc. When I used to export to PDF, these would tag properly as <H1>, <H2>, etc. Now they show as <P> tags.  I have to manually change each tag!  Does anyone know when this will be fixed? Is anyone else having this same experience?

Thanks, Marion

Hi Marion

I looked at the Word file and there are no headings in the Word file.

You can check this by doing Ctrl + F in Word and under Navigation Panel, click on Headings.

There are no Headings shown in shared Word file.

I checked the styling of text in screenshots above. They are normal paragraphs only.

Please try once after updating your Office and Acrobat both.

Thanks

HI

Thanks for checking.  That’s weird. So why does it show in the styles that, in the example below, I have a Heading2 at the top of page 2 but it does not show this in the Navigation panel?

Hi

When I checked in the document, it didn't show any Heading in Styles on page 2. Perhaps you can try updating your Office or try with some other document.

It seems like a Microsoft issue.

Thanks

OK, thanks.  Our entire office just upgraded to Office 2016 last week. Will have to make them aware of this issue.
