   1. Table Rows, each of which contains Table Header <TH> or Table Data<TD> cells.
   2. <THead>, <TBody>, and <TFoot> sections, each of which contains Table Rows. (The Table Rows contain <TH> cells, <TD> cells, or both.)
3. Do one or more of the following:
   1. If the tag for the table doesn’t contain these elements, but rows, columns, and cells appear in the table in the document pane, use the Touch Up Reading Order tool to select and define the table or individual cells.
   2. If the table contains rows that span two or more columns, set ColSpan and RowSpan attributes for these rows in the tag structure.
   3. Re-create the table in the authoring application, and then convert it to a tagged PDF.
