- This video will walk through how to manually create list tags in adobe acrobat pro DC. The reading order tool does not give the option to tag a List item, so we must use different techniques.
0:20 - Add a parent L tag
1:10 - Create the rest of the List structure
3:25 - Nested List

How would I add a figure in a nested list? Would it go inside or outside of the tag?
It would go inside of the LBody tag yes.
@@TheAccessibilityGuy Thanks so much!! Your videos are very helpful.
Why can't you just tag the bullet point and body with a single tag? Do you really need that level of granularity with the Lbl and Lbody tags?
You need at least the lbody tag. The main purpose is for how it's communicated to assistive technology. It's also because of accessibility standards that I try to follow like PDF UA as an example.
I have a docfor which PAC shows error about Figure doesn't have alternate text, but it doesn't locate the figure and there is no figure tag in the document. How can I fix it? Can you please guide? I have spent more than 20 hours but couldn't fix..
If you hold your control key and select the little arrow next to the tag type it will fully expand the tag tree. My guess is that you have a figure tag nested deeply inside the tag structure somewhere. Chances are it is just an empty tag but you need to find it and delete it
I don't see the option panel in my adobe acrobat. Can you please guide?
My guess is you are using a newer version of acrobat.
@@TheAccessibilityGuy Yes.
Hi, do we follow the same process for numbered lists? Thank you!
Yes it's the exact same process.
Great tutorial! I did the same and ran it through the reader, but it kept reading out the bullet punctuation (it reades my bullet ">" as N G T N G T which is so annoying). How do I stop it from reading out the bullet? Thanks
If you are using the Adobe read aloud feature, you should know that it is extremely buggy and is not considered a screen reader and should not be used for testing the accessibility of your documents
What if the list extends to the nest page or 2? How do you merge a single list across multiple pages? Thanks!
Sorry for the late reply! Same idea, the tags just keep goin. Nothing special about multi page lists really
I wish we could copy and paste empty tags...
But that would make our lives so much easier. They couldn't possibly add that feature 😂
Adobe Acrobat accessibility needs some insane changes. This is too complicated. Not user friendly at all. Why must the bullets be tagged separately?
Could not agree more.
