The most popular is Adobe Acrobat + MSOffice.  Historically, though it would 
have been FrameMaker.

However, you can also use Office 2007 + their own "Save as PDF" plugin to 
produce this.  I believe that the latest versions of OpenOffice will also write 
out a limited set of structure when saving PDF and I believe the PdfTeX folks 
are also working on support.  (and there are various other options as well)

Subject: Re: [poppler] Extract pdf

Oh, I was not aware of the semantic feature in PDF 1.7
(it tells that the logical structure facility was already
 introduced in PDF 1.3). Thank you for pointing out my
misunderstanding. What is the most popular workflow to
generate such semantically structured PDF?

Regards,
