Adobe Portable Document Format Archive (PDF/A) Export

PDF/A is a self-contained, device independent file format for the long-term archiving of page-oriented documents.

The ISO ratified standard (ISO 19005-1:2005) was developed by a working group of representatives from government, industry and academia.

All supported TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms formats can be exported to PDF/A-1b.

In addition to standard PDF export, the following data is also exported as PDF/A-1b:

• Only embeddable fonts are saved.
• Font data is stored, specifying which characters of a font have been used.
• A color profile is saved.
• Links to start other applications are not permitted.
• Access restrictions are not permitted.

TX Text Control .NET for Windows Forms supports digital signatures in Adobe PDF/A documents. Signatures can be created with PFX, DER Cer or Base64 CER certificate files.
