The most important data format in today's working world, whether for online applications, email archiving, or long-term archiving, is without question the Portable Document Format (PDF).

The third part of our PDF/A series covers PDF/A-3, which is considered the current standard for archiving and e-invoices. This does not mean that PDF/A-1 or PDF/A-2 are no longer valid. Depending on the use case, older PDF/A formats can still be fully sufficient. PDF viewers are backward-compatible, so PDF/A-1 remains valid even though newer formats exist. Still, PDF/A-3 is currently treated as the standard format.
