Tab Order Misconceptions

• Not sure where it started but people think we "Tab" through content in a PDF document.
• Not true!
• We Tab through links and form controls but not generic content such as paragraphs, lists, or headings.
• Might be errors reported in a Full Check that the Tab Order is wonky.
• If this error is in the PDF the validation tool must see a link or form control and is not sure if it can be chosen in the order it appears in the document.
• There are keyboard commands for moving through generic content.
• To repair the Tab Order, Go to the Pages tab in the Navigation Pane.
• Select the first page and then press Ctrl + A to Select All.
• Press the AppKey or right mouse button and choose Properties.
• Make sure the setting for Tab Order is to infer the Tab Order from the document structure.
• This now seems to be the default, but may still show up in an Accessibility Full Check.
