I have my doubts that a reliable automated system can be made,
For people using the layout engine in iText, it should be
trivial to automate the tagging - since you know what is a paragraph,
etc. It's only the explicit content features that will require manual tagging.
even Acrobat has problems with PdfMaker in Word.
I've not seen a case of PDFMaker not getting tagging
correct. Do you have an example of that?
I also think (I may be
mistaken here) that 99% of the people would be happy with something that
would simply give the right text ordering.
It's certainly a start and definitely better than
nothing. Though it's not necessarily PDF/A-1A compliant.
My idea is to give a manual
way to tag and a really simple automated way just to be able to retrieve
the text unambiguously and in the right order.
Sounds like a great first step!
