All schema elements are displayed whether or not they'r  e populated.
A bar is displayed at the beginning of each form schema. This bar includes the schema name, the document ID associated with the schema, any informational text that might be applicable (for example, the dormant indicator for Form 1040), and links (blue underlined text) to any supplemental schemas called by the form but not called by a specific line number.
When the schemas have multiple choice elements, where only 1 element can be selected, the descriptions of each choice element are indented. For example, for Method of Accounting, cash, accrual, and other may apply, but only 1 can be selected.
Items, which can occur multiple times, are displayed in consecutive order with a header indicating the beginning of each occurrence. Two separate items can be included in
Dependent Information
.
Hyperlinks (blue underlined text) are available to jump to supporting details. For example, if a detail exists for Other Income on line 21, the description will have a hyperlink (circled in red).
Select the hyperlink to view the supporting detail. First item can be included in Other Income.

Select each form or schedule schema to take you to that specific section in the PDF file.
A form, such as Schedule C, can have multiple instances. The total number of forms is shown inside a parenthesis (3). Also, a plus sign is displayed next to the file name when more than 1 instance of the form exists in the PDF file. Select the plus sign to expand the list and see that each file has a unique identify number (such as IRS1040SchCN1, IRS1040SchCN2, IRS1040SchCN3, and so forth). The 1st instance of the form is the item shown with the parenthesis, while the 2nd instance has N1 at the end of the description. Select the bookmark to go to the instance of that form.
