Hi there Are you talking about those files that are made accessible, like those tax files that IRS does? I think so because when I was using JAWS it said something about tagging. If that's what you talking about, the answer is yes. I did a 1040 form this past tax year, and I believe that thing is tagged. The only thing was I couldn't do all the checkboxes. I haven't tried one of the IRS forms with this newest version 6.3.
You can try a demo version of this program. Gigi On Sep 5, 2014, at 7:32 AM, Jonathan C. Cohn <[email protected]> wrote: > Does PDFPen understand tagged PDf files?
