This demo allows you to upload a PDF and check it for conformance to the PDF/A-1a or PDF/A-1b standards for document archiving. The demo uses a command-line version of the pdfaPilot utility on the back-end; the validation report that is returned demonstrates the default HTML report output of the utility (XML output is also available, although not from this demo).

• PDF/A-1a: Level A conformance (PDF/A-1a) indicates complete compliance with the ISO 19005-1 requirements, including those related to structural and semantic properties of documents.
• PDF/A-1b: Level B conformance (PDF/A-1b) indicates minimal compliance to ensure that the rendered visual appearance of a conforming file is preservable over the long term.

NOTE: This demo accepts input file sizes no greater than 3MB. Please keep in mind that processing time is a function of the size and complexity of the uploaded document.
