PDF · uploaded · archival PDF/A

PDF/A uploads the PDF and returns an archival PDF/A-2b candidate. Color can shift toward ordinary screen color. Some complex files fail with an error instead of a file that only claims to be archival.

PDF/A FAQs

Is the file uploaded?

Yes. The file is uploaded for that request.

Which part of PDF/A?

You get PDF/A-2b. It is not a certificate that a separate checker has approved the file.

How is this different from Compress?

Compress shrinks pictures for size. PDF/A aims at long-term archival structure and may fail instead of faking compliance.
