Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between PDF and PDF/A?
PDF/A is a locked-down, ISO-standardized version of PDF built specifically for archiving. It embeds every font and color profile directly in the file, so the document looks the same decades from now, regardless of what software opens it.
Will converting to PDF/A increase my file size?
Обычно да, поскольку PDF/A требует, чтобы все шрифты и цветовые данные были полностью автономными внутри документа, а не полагались на системные шрифты читателя.
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?
Да. PDF/A не поддерживает шифрование, поэтому любая защита паролем снимается в ходе приведения файла в соответствие.
Can I open a PDF/A file in a normal PDF reader?
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.
