18: Tagging an Image without a Caption (Using the Reading Order Tool)

The Reading Order Tool is an alternative way you can tag objects in your PDF. Though it is recommended you tag all of your objects manually, as we have done in other chapters, there are some cases where tagging with this method can be useful. Here is an example for tagging an image.

  1. Open the Reading Order Tool.
