Choose New Tag from the Options menu.

Add tags to comments

When you tag a PDF that includes comments, the comments are tagged as well. However, if you add comments to a
PDF that's already tagged, your comments are untagged unless you enable comment tagging first.
Note: To Enable comment tagging in a PDF, in the Tags tab, choose Tag Annotations from the Options menu. Comments
or markups that you add to the PDF are tagged automatically.
If a document contains untagged comments, you can locate them in the logical structure tree and tag them by using
the Find command in the Tags tab.
1 In the Tags tab, choose Find from the Options menu.
In the Find Element dialog box, choose Unmarked Comments from the Find pop-up menu, and click Find.
2
When the comment type appears in the Type field (for example, Text), click Tag Element, choose Annotation from
3
the Type pop-up menu in the New Tag dialog box, and then click OK.
4 In the Find Element dialog box, click Find Next to locate and tag all comments, and then click Close.

Correct table tags with the Tags tab

Use the TouchUp Reading Order tool to make sure that tables are tagged correctly. If you need to structure figures and
text within the cells of your table, you may prefer to re-create the table in the authoring application before you convert
it as an accessible PDF. Adding tags on a cell level in Acrobat is a labor-intensive procedure.
Before you make any changes to table elements, use the TouchUp Reading Order tool to determine that the table is
tagged correctly.
