I am wondering if it's possible to generate a accessible PDF with PHPWord? Mostly to be able to have tagged PDFs. For example, tagging a heading.

This is to support user of assistive technology like screen readers.

It says dompdf is the underlying library used to create PDFs, but I don't see that library supporting a tagged PDF?

Accessible PDFs need to be properly structured, include appropriate tags, and adhere to accessibility standards such as PDF/UA (ISO 14289).
