How can I generate a Table Header Cell Element (TH) field automatically with Acrobat?

I have some knowledge of Accessible PDFs but I am looking for more help. Acrobat 5 has a tag called <TH> Table Header Cell Element, but I have played with Word 2002 and cannot get Word 2002 to generate this tag. Must I manually create it? Are there any other PDF tags that cannot be created automatically? –Julian Rickards

You'll want Acrobat 6 in order to create that tag automatically. – Leonard Rosenthol

If you have more questions on Accessible PDFs, try listing them on the STC AccessAbility SIG. They are technical communicators who deal with all aspects of accessibility in all formats of documentation. Someone may have specific knowledge as applied to Acrobat PDFs. -- Andy Hunyady

The primary starting point from Adobe is http://access.adobe.com. From here, you have links to various Section 508 places. Another starting point would be the BFMA (Business Forms Management Association) site, where you should find further leads. –Max Wyss
