Convert existing PDF file to PDF/A

Post by eelco_akker »

Dear All,

Is it possible using the PDF-XChange Drivers API SDK to 'convert' an existing PDF to a PDF/A Format?

Will be using VB .Net 2010, in the sample I can't seem to find to use/open an existing PDF.

Or do I need an other SDK for this purpose?

With kind regards,

Hi,

You will need to View and then 'reprint' the PDF and set the options to print to PDF/A as if you were creating a brand new file if using the Drivers SDK only.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Best regards
