Hi Steffen and Hans,

there is no alternative text in the PDF code because of lpdf-ini.lmt:

   local f_actual_text     = formatters["/Span <</ActualText %s >> BDC"]

-  local f_alternative_text  = formatters["/Span <</AltText %s >> BDC"]
+  local f_alternative_text  = formatters["/Span <</Alt %s >> BDC"]

   local s_actual_text_e     <const> = "EMC ET"

The PDF key name is "Alt"
(https://opensource.adobe.com/dc-acrobat-sdk-docs/pdfstandards/PDF32000_2008.pdf#page=567),
from PDF-1.3
(https://github.com/pdf-association/arlington-pdf-model/blob/master/tsv/1.3/StructElem.tsv)
to the latest version
(https://github.com/pdf-association/arlington-pdf-model/blob/master/tsv/latest/StructElem.tsv).

There seems to be no "AltText" key in the PDF specification, afaIk.

Besides other questions related to the accessibility directive, it would
be great to fix this issue.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
