If the content of the input PDF file does not meet the criteria to be converted to the required PDF/A format, the format of the output PDF/A may be downgraded.

This applies only to the files which are convertible to a PDF/A compliant file.

For example:

  • If the input file contains text that is not extractable and the output is configured to PDF/A-2u, the actual output will be downgraded to PDF/A­2b.

  • If the input does not contain logical structure information (that is, tagging) and the output is configured to PDF/A­1a, the actual output will be downgraded to PDF/A­1b.

The following table summarizes the configured output in TotalAgility, the expected PDF/A format of the output file, and the actual PDF/A format of the output file based on the contents of the input file.
