Frequently Asked Questions
What is PDF/A and why would I need it?
PDF/A is an ISO-standardized, archival version of PDF designed for long-term preservation. It's often required for legal filings, government records, and other documents that must remain readable decades from now.
What metadata fields can I edit?
Title, Author, Subject, Keywords, Creator, and Producer.
Is the PDF/A output fully certified?
PDF/A export produces structurally correct archival output (valid OutputIntent/ICC profile, clean conversion), but isn't run through a full ISO 19005 validator. For strict legal certification, verify with a dedicated PDF/A validator too.
