ALT Text not appearing in group
InDesign 2020
Issue: I have a screenshot with alt text included (typed in the Object Export Options dialogue). I then have a simple red box (rectangle tool, no fill, 2pt stroke) highlighting a section of that screenshot. When I group those objects, and export a tagged PDF, I get an error in Acrobat stating that no alt text exists.
Expected result: Alt text should appear.
Actual result: No alt text is present, or the assigned alt text is not recognized and is flagged by Acrobat's accessibility checker.
This issue did not exist with ID 2019.

Any update on this? We'd really like to move to 2020, but can't create accessible PDFs until this issue is resolved.

This is an issue for me too. I revert to CC2019 to export to accessible PDF now.

This has been a big issue for my team with making documents Remediated.
