No I don't have any rendering issue. But PDF/A has become an international standard for "the long-term archiving of electronic documents" (from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF/A). For example in Italy this format is required by many public organizations (Trade Bureau and many others). So it's important to know when a document is conforming to the standard, and knowing that it is a "PDF-1.4" is too generic.
Moreover, it should be simple to determine the PDF/A compliance, since the PDF contains a special metadata for this. If you open the attached PDF with a simple text editor, you can find this: (note the xmlns:pdfaid="http://www.aiim.org/pdfa/ns/id/"; namespace, as stated in wikipedia article) 21 0 obj <</Type/Metadata/Subtype/XML/Length 3072>> stream <?xpacket begin="" id="W5M0MpCehiHzreSzNTczkc9d"?> <x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/"> <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#";> <rdf:Description rdf:about="" xmlns:pdfaid="http://www.aiim.org/pdfa/ns/id/";> <pdfaid:part>1</pdfaid:part> <pdfaid:conformance>A</pdfaid:conformance> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:about="" xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";> <dc:creator> <rdf:Seq> <rdf:li>Davide Capodaglio</rdf:li> </rdf:Seq> </dc:creator> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:about="" xmlns:pdf="http://ns.adobe.com/pdf/1.3/";> <pdf:Producer>OpenOffice.org 3.1</pdf:Producer> </rdf:Description> <rdf:Description rdf:about="" xmlns:xmp="http://ns.adobe.com/xap/1.0/";> <xmp:CreatorTool>Writer</xmp:CreatorTool> <xmp:CreateDate>2009-05-08T11:39:29+02:00</xmp:CreateDate> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF> </x:xmpmeta> -- Detect PDF/A document https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373445 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
