PPT converted tags using "textbox" instead of "art"

New Here ,
May 09, 2023 May 09, 2023

The last two times I've converted a PPT to a PDF (using the PPT "Convert to Adobe PDF" function), instead of using "Art" tags in the Tag viewer, the program has been creating "Textbox" tags. I've never seen this tag before, it's not in the tag list either.

 

I need to make my files 508 compliant. Does anyone know if this tag is acceptable? It's a lot of extra work to change all these tags back to Art maually.

 

Why did this suddenly start? How do I make it stop?

It sounds like your version of Acrobat might not be set to "Apply Role Mapping to Tags."

From the Tag Tree panel, open the Options drop-down menu and ensure that Apply Role Mapping to Tags is checked.
