Good morning;
I am really in a quandary with regard to this document.
It was created using adobe indesign 16.0
I am having problems getting the language settings to work in certain parts of the document when using acrobat reader.
I see similar issues with both Jaws and nvda.
Consistently throughout the document the French language setting is not being honored for headings and tables.
The first part of the document where authors and organizations are listed the language is honored for graphics and figures but not for text.
The document language is specified as French in the advanced tab of the properties for the document.

Strangely when I open this document using Foxit Phantom PDF, I do not see these issues.

Can anyone suggest anything that might address these issues?
Are there particular tagging issues from InDesign that might explain this>?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
David
