Tobias,

to be nitpicking a bit...

The context you write "check for PDF Version 1.4" in makes me think that
doesn't means for you "checking whether only elements as defined in PDF-1.4
are present in the document" but instead "checking whether X.Y = 1.4 is used
in the leading %PDF-X.Y line or in the value of Version in the catalog".

That would be the wrong thing to do, though, as neither of those values
"shall be used in determining whether a file is in accordance with this part
of ISO 19005."

Regards,   Michael.

PS: In case you did misunderstand that 1.4-thingie, you may really want to
re-read the PDF/A-1 spec, the PDF-1.4 spec, and the PDF-1.7 spec (to have an
idea which elements have been added).
