Description

It's more a question then an issue:
is it possible to parse tags from the document? I think about the marks for headings, tables etc.

Research direction

The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Begin by locating the PDF parsing and document-structure handling code, then determine whether tagged headings, tables, and other marks are available from the parsed document. Done would require a defined supported tag model and tests demonstrating extraction.
