Dan,

Thank you for an amazingly fast and complete response.

I am unfamiliar with asciidoctor-pdf.js, but it sounds like a new asciidoctor-pdf that uses different (perhaps more capable) technology to create PDF files.  Please confirm?

Meanwhile, I posted a question on the Prawn discussion group to see if there were any near-term plans to add tagging to PDFs.  I suspect that even if they added that feature tomorrow, it would take some time for asciidoctor to implement and test the feature.

My $0.02 is that accessibility is a big topic in academia, and asciidoctor is a powerful tool for academia.  Please consider prioritizing accessibility going forward.
