Frequently Asked Questions
1Why does reading order matter?
Screen readers follow the reading order to narrate content. Incorrect order makes documents incomprehensible for visually impaired users.
2How is reading order set?
The tool analyzes your document structure and creates logical tags. Headings, paragraphs, images, and tables are ordered for natural reading flow.
3Is this required for ADA compliance?
Yes. ADA Section 508 and WCAG 2.1 require documents to have proper reading order for screen reader accessibility.
4Can I manually adjust the reading order?
Yes. After automatic tagging, you can review and reorder elements to ensure the narrative flow matches your intent.
