Differences

Well tagged PDF:

The 'Lbl' element in Well-Tagged PDF is used to define label text that typically serves as a descriptor for form controls or other interactive elements.

It should be clearly associated with the element it labels and correctly nested in the structure tree to maintain logical relationships for content extraction and reflow.


PDFUA:

In PDF/UA, 'Lbl' is essential for providing accessible labels that help users identify and understand the purpose of associated interactive elements.

Labels must be explicitly tagged with 'Lbl' and include alternative text or descriptions if needed, ensuring assistive technologies can convey the correct meaning to the user.
