PDF tagged or not?

Hi All,

I have run into a PDF that has tags (done in Word and then added pages in
InDesign or similar) in the Tag Window but the Checker says it isn't tagged
and the Properties box says there are no tags.

I came across this once way, way back and it could have been that someone
inadvertently did temporary tags through the set up assistant and this
caused the weirdness.

I don't think this is the case here, but it could be. I haven't seen this
for a long time, so I wondered what can cause a tagged PDF to be seen as
not tagged? Just wondering if there are more reasons now than there were
years ago,

Cheers

Lisa
