Document Titles and Heading Tags

• "A title is information representing the normal means of referring to the document. Titles can be present as both metadata entry and page-content."
• "The metadata entry for a PDF document's title is represented using XMP."
• "A document's title appearing as page content traditionally has often been tagged with <H1>."
• "Since PDF/UA does not require any specific structure type for title content, it is permissible to tag such content with either <H1> or other tags (typically, <P> or tags mapped to <P>)."
• "Since headings commonly appear in Tables of Contents, and since document titles do not normally appear in Tables of Contents, it can be argued that it is preferred to use the <P> tag, and not the <H1> tag, for tagging title content."
