Hi Pablo, Thanks, but no, that doesn’t work.
Acrobat reads the document by just warning that the page is empty. While the report comes back mostly ok. When I ask it to “add tags”, it tells me it will go through the document, detect all images, and display their tags, but then it says that there are is no figure information to display. The tag report list that lists all accessibility tags identifies the figure as <NonStruct> with information PathPathPathPathPathPath. Below is the generated report. Thanks!
