If you have the ear of someone who creates such PDFs, you should let them know about the tagging function, and ask them to use it. Tagged PDF files tend to be a bit larger than non-tagged PDFs, but as most modern machines can handle the file these days, it's rarely an issue.
ActiveSync can add permanent tags after the fact. They are not quite as good as source tagged files but work ok in my experience.
