Great video! I was able to use your guide to make sure Adobe's built-in Read Out Loud feature was correctly sequencing through my content.

Amazing! The read aloud feature is super buggy just fyi!

[@shummers]

Thank you so much for making these free videos

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

I'm happy that you found the videos helpful. I appreciate the feedback

Great video - I have the on-going issue with Acrobat rearranging the order of images when moving them UP the reading order, then end up behind other elements like background artifacts, or background color blocks... any suggestions?

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

I think we solved this :)! Stay out of the content panel when possible!

Super helpful as a conceptual video. I feel like the content panel is so frustrating when you try to remediate a pdf. It's a cascade of issues to edit after you already worked hard to get the tags right.

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

It totally is a pain!

Hello, im trying to fillow your video as i try to retrofit a form that i previously created and i notice thst you dont show what is needed to move the item in the content panel. Ive tried dragging it to the new position but that hasnt worked, so i keep watching to see what you did.🤦🏾‍♀️

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

The content panel is challenging! Be careful in there. I'm adding this to my list for future videos!

Hi
We have been working create repeat link too many times daily.
Can we create any macros for adobe dc file, If you explain, how to create link?

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

Sorry I am unsure of what you mean.

[@caraidol9622]

What about path and empty containers? Should I just leave them?

[@TheAccessibilityGuy]

Best practice would be to artifact them. You do that by selecting the element, right clicking, and change tag to artifact.
