Frequently Asked Questions
Jaka jest różnica między PDF a PDF/A?▼
PDF/A to zamknięta, zgodna ze standardem ISO wersja pliku PDF stworzona specjalnie do archiwizacji. Osadza każdą czcionkę i profil kolorów bezpośrednio w pliku, dzięki czemu dokument będzie wyglądał tak samo za kilka dekad, niezależnie od tego, jakie oprogramowanie go otworzy.
Will converting to PDF/A increase my file size?▼
Usually, yes, since PDF/A requires all fonts and color data to be fully self-contained inside the document rather than relying on the reader's system fonts.
Who actually needs a PDF/A file?▼
It's most often required for legal filings, government records, medical archives, and academic institutions that mandate long-term, standards-compliant document storage.
Does converting to PDF/A remove passwords or encryption?▼
Yes — PDF/A doesn't allow encryption, so any password protection is stripped as part of bringing the file into compliance.
Czy mogę otworzyć plik PDF/A w zwykłym czytniku plików PDF?▼
Yes, PDF/A files open in any standard PDF viewer like Adobe Reader or your browser — the format is a stricter subset of PDF, not a separate file type.
