First, we need to create a Tags Root. Right now, we do not have one in our PDF sample. To create one, go to the Tags pane and right click on the No Tags Available text. Click Create Tags Root.
Next, go to the Options Menu and click Find.
In the Find Element box, go to the Find dropdown menu and choose Unmarked Annotations. Then check Search Document and click the Find button.
The first form field in your document should be highlighted. When you see this, click the Tag Element button.
The New Tag box will appear. In the Type dropdown menu, choose Form and click OK.
In the Tags Pane, you will see a Form Tag has been created and within it is an OBJR Tag with your form field inside it.
Go back to the Find Element box and repeat these steps until every single form field has been tagged.
Once everything has been tagged, we are going to tag our text for each form field. Start by creating a paragraph tag and placing each text inside. In this case, remember to only highlight the words and the colon. We will take care of the lines later.
Drag and drop all of the Form tags and OBJR tags into their respective Paragraph tags.
