PDF Converter - PDF/A output

PDF/A is an ISO-standardized version of PDF specialized for use in the archiving and long-term preservation of electronic documents.

PDF Converter can generate PDF/A "2B" output, if configured to do so.

Please see configuration instructions below.

Docker

Edit the Dockerfile to include:

ENV PLUTEXT_PDF_CONFORMANCE=2B

then build:

docker build -t plutextdocumentservices .

Linux

The configuration file is at /opt/PlutextDocumentServices/PlutextDocumentServices.config

Add a line which sets PLUTEXT_PDF_CONFORMANCE

For example:

PLUTEXT_PDF_CONFORMANCE=2B

Then restart the plutextd daemon.

Windows

For PDF/A, you need registry setting PDF_CONFORMANCE=2B at Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PLUTEXT (then restart the pds service)

Verification

After configuring 2B as above, convert a docx to PDF.

If you open the resulting PDF in Acrobat Reader, you should see:
