OC1 Sections of content in a content stream (including a page's Content stream, a form's Content stream or pattern's Content stream, glyph descriptions a Type 3 font as specified by its CharProcs entry, or an annotation's appearance) may be made optional by enclosing them between the marked-content operators BDC and EMC (see 14.6, "Marked Content") with a marked-content tag of OC.
Artifact2 An artifact shall be explicitly distinguished from real content by enclosing it in a marked-content sequence with the tag Artifact.
TagSuspect3

In some situations, conforming writer may be unable to determine correct page content order for part of a document's contents. In such cases, tag suspects (PDF 1.6) can be used. The conforming writer shall identify suspect content by using marked content (see 14.6, "Marked Content") with a tag of TagSuspect. The marked content shall have a properties dictionary with an entry whose name is TagSuspect and whose value is Ordering, which indicates that the ordering of the enclosed marked content does not meet Tagged PDF specifications.

Note  Note
This can occur, for example, if content was extracted from another application, or if there are ambiguities or missing information in text output.
ReversedChars4 The marked-content tag ReversedChars informs the conforming reader that show strings within a marked-content sequence contain characters in the reverse of page content order. If the sequence encompasses multiple show strings, only the individual characters within each string shall be reversed; the strings themselves shall be in natural reading order.
Span5 Marked-content sequences having the tag Span are also used to carry certain accessibility properties (Alt, ActualText, Lang, and E; see 14.9, "Accessibility Support"). Such sequences lack an MCID property and are not associated with any structure element. This use of the Span marked-content tag is distinct from its use as a structure type.
Clip6 In Tagged PDF, all marked clipping sequences shall carry the marked-content tag Clip.
AF7 One or more files may be associated with sections of content in a content stream by enclosing those sections between the marked content operators BDC and EMC (see 14.6, "Marked Content") with a marked content tag of AF.
