José, Thank you for the information - this is very helpful. To the best of my understanding our project does not require javascript support and from a security viewpoint, the fact that Evince doesn't try to implement is a good thing. I may need to become more familiar with the PDF/A standard so I can itemize better what parts we care about and not. On a separate note, I came across the GNU PDF Library yesterday; do you happen to know how this relates to Poppler? Are they completely separate things or is one a derivative of the other? Thanks again.
