In version 6 Help:
To set the tabbing order for links, form fields, and annotations:
1. Click the Pages tab in the navigation pane.
2. Do one of the following:
l Select a page thumbnail, and choose Page Properties from the Options menu.
l Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) a page thumbnail, and choose Page Properties.
3. In the Page Properties dialog box, click Tab Order, and select the tab order:
l To tab through rows from left to right, or right-to-left for pages with a right-to-left binding, select Use Row Order.
l To tab through columns from left to right and from top to bottom, or right-to-left for pages with a right-to-left binding, select Use Column Order.
l To tab in the order specified by the structure tree created by the PDF authoring application, select Use Document Structure.
Note: For structured documents, it's best to select the Use Document Structure option to match the intention of the PDF authoring application.
l If the document was created in an earlier version of Acrobat, the tab order will be Unspecified by default. With this setting, form fields are tabbed through first, followed by annotations ordered by row.
