PDF/Archive

The US committee for PDF/A (PDF/Archive) will be meeting on Thursday, May 17 at the AIIM Headquarters in Silver Spring. The focus of this meeting will be on reviewing and producing comments for the PDF/A-2 which will become ISO 19005-2. ISO 19005-1 (PDF/A-1) was published in 2005 and is based on PDF Reference 1.4. This new version of PDF/A-2 will incorporate some new features that are in PDF Reference 1.7. This review process will produce comments on the new version of the standard which will be sent to ISO for the committee to discuss at its next international meeting which will be August 28-29 in Berlin, Germany.

Anyone who lives in the U.S. is welcome to participate on the US PDF/A committee and may attend the meeting this week. If you want to review the history of the PDF/A commtitee, you will find minutes from previous meetings at http://www.aiim.org/pdfa.
