PDF/A Norm ISO 19005

Reading tip on the subject of ISO-19005: "PDF/A compact 2.0"​

The PDF/A format has been ISO-19005 for the long-term archiving of electronic documents since 1 October 2005. The format provides users with the necessary assurance that documents retain their appearance and readability permanently - regardless of which application or system was used to create them. A distinction must be made between the original format and the standard parts PDF/A-2 and PDF/A-3, which were published in June 2011 and October 2012 respectively.

Handling job applications is a particularly time-consuming task, especially when you consider how they are submitted in a wide range of different file formats. The most-effective way of getting a grip on this situation is by using webPDF to automate the process of standardizing all those assorted formats.

Long-term archiving with PDF/A | webPDF

The PDF/A format provides the legal certainty you need for long-term archiving and is one reason why it has been an ISO standard since 2005. The format has been perfected since then, and now we have to distinguish between the original PDF/A-1 edition and the newer versions PDF/A-2 and PDF/A-3 that provide additional features. The overriding advantage of this file format is that the documents them­selves contain all the elements needed for reproduction.
