Tagged form fields
The rule check reports whether all form fields in the document are tagged. If the rule check passes, you can also use the Tooltip in a form field’s properties to provide users with more information.
If it fails, do either of the following to fix the issue in Foxit PDF Editor Pro.
- Tag form fields with the Autotag Form Field command in the Accessibility tab.
- Right-click the rule in the Accessibility Check panel in the navigation pane and choose Fix from the context menu.
Field descriptions
The check reports whether all form fields have a text description in the document. All form fields need a text description for an accessible PDF. You can add a text description (tooltip) to a form field in its properties by doing any of the following:
- Right-click the form field and choose Properties… to add the tooltip for the form field.
- You can also click Form > Add Tooltip to add tooltips automatically for all form fields which do not have descriptions. By default, the text near the form fields or the names of the form fields will be used as the tooltips.
- Right-click the rule in the Accessibility Check panel in the navigation pane and choose Fix from the context menu. (Pro Only)
- Click Accessibility > Reading Order to enable Touch Up Reading Order setting mode. Right-click the form field and choose Edit Form Field Text…. Then type text in the pop-up Form Field Text dialog box.
