Marilyn,

We use a technique where documents are XML tagged using the built in tagging tools in InDesign then graphic elements (Figures) are dragged to the correct location in the XML structure view. I'm not sure this is how Adobe intends the structure view to be used but it works quite well and doesn't require elaborate threading with figures etc. This technique allows for flexible layout with correct reading sequence in the XML output. It doesn't translate to Tagged PDF unfortunately.

I have noticed in CS that when the Figure elements are dropped into a new location in the XML structure the paragraph that follows the new figure element location will lose its paragraphs style. The style can be easily reapplied but it's a bit of a hassle.

Cheers,
Phil Redman
