\setupbackend[
format={pdf/a-1b:2005},
profile={default_cmyk.icc,default_rgb.icc,default_gray.icc},
intent=Coated FOGRA39 (ISO 12647-2:2004),
level=0]
\setupstructure[state=start,method=auto]
\setupbackend[export=yes]
\setupexternalfigures[location=default]
\starttext
\pdfalternativetext{\externalfigure[cow]}
{alternate description}
\stopPDFalternativetext
\stoptext
… but when opening the PDF with Acrobat Reader and checking the Document
Properties “Tagged PDF?” it says “No”.
