| Summary | 0005282: Support PDF features required for online reading and interaction, including accessibility tagging | ||||
| Description | PDF includes features, such as accessibility tagging of headings, fields, acronyms, text alternatives, etc., that make it suitable for online reading and interaction. Scribus should of course aim to support the full PDF feature set, but in particular, it should aim to support the accessibility components of any features it does support, especially tagged PDF and text alternatives. For example, if you can insert an image, then it should be possible to supply a text alternative. If you can insert a heading, then it should be possible to tag it as a heading. | ||||
