I teach for a local university that is now requiring us to distribute documents that are "accessible".  I have been using asciidoctor to author my assignments and syllabi (because it is fabulous) but the resultant PDF files created by asciidoctor-pdf are not tagged and therefore fail the accessibility test.  There are other issues that lower my score, such as contrast, but I believe I can correct that on my own.

I note that if I upload the same document in HTML format, the HTML file passes the accessibility test with 100%.

Is there any way to create tagged PDFs using asciidoctor that can pass the accessibility test?
