table in Table Editing mode.
• You can also click the Show Order Panel in the TouchUp Reading Order dialog and select the table
from the Order Panel. One technique is to highlight the snippets of text in the Order Panel that
match the headings of the first row in the table. This often activates the Table Editor when it cannot
otherwise be activated. You then select the Table Editor button on the TouchUp Reading Order
dialog to place the table in Table Editing Mode (See “Figure 20 Using the Order Panel to Activate
the Table Editor” on page 32)

Once in Table Editing Mode, the borders of the table cells are highlighted. You can change the color of the
border to suit your needs (See “Figure 21 Table Editing Mode” on page 33). You can select individual cells
by clicking within the borders with the mouse. You can select multiple table cells by holding down Shift and
clicking. This is an effecient method for selecting the first row of data cells in a table which need to be
changed to header cells.
