Comments

PDF has a feature called Tagged PDF, which allows the document to be annotated with a semantic structure. Almost nobody bothers to generate such PDFs, but the support is there!

Dutch law requires that official documents be published as PDF/A-1a which is a subset of PDF 1.4 that can be archived and must be tagged.
