Correct reflow problems with the Content tab
Use the Content tab to correct reflow problems in a PDF that can’t be corrected by using the TouchUp Reading Order
tool. Because you can damage a PDF by editing content objects, make sure that you’re familiar with PDF structure
before you change anything. For comprehensive information about PDF structure, see the
PDF Reference Sixth
Edition: Adobe Portable Document Format Version 1.7
, on the
PDF reference
page (English only) of the Adobe website.
The Content tab provides a hierarchical view of the objects that make up a PDF, including the PDF object itself. Each
document includes one or more pages, a set of annotations (such as comments and links), and the content objects for
the page. The content objects consist of containers, text, paths, and images. Objects are listed in the order in which they
appear on the page, like tags in the logical structure tree. However, PDFs don’t require tags for you to view or change
the object structure.
1
Choose View > Show/Hide > Navigation Panels > Content.
2
Expand the document name to view pages and objects.
3
Move a container or object by selecting it and doing one of the following:
•
Drag it to the location you want.
•
Choose Cut from the Options menu, select the tag above the location you want to paste the cut tag, and choose Paste
from the Options menu.
Note:
Container elements can’t be pasted directly to page elements. To move a container to another page, cut the
container you want to move. Then select a container on the page you want to move the container to and choose Paste
from the Options menu. Then, drag the container out one level to the location that you want.
Content tab options
In the Content tab, use the Options menu or right-click an object to choose from the following options:
New Container
Adds a new container object at the end of the selected page or container.

Available only for containers that include dictionaries.
Cut
Cuts and copies the selected object (not the related page content).
Paste
Pastes content directly below the selected object at the same hierarchical level.
Paste Child
Pastes content into the selected object as a child content item.
Delete
Removes the object (not the related page content) from the document.
Find Content From Selection
Searches for the object in the Content tab that contains the object selected in the
document pane.
Find
Searches for unmarked (untagged) artifacts, content, comments, and links. Options allow you to search the page
or document, and to add tags to found items.
