Bug ID: 140759
Summary: PDF/A-1a export not in selection dialog, but the
choice PDF/A-1b exports PDF/A-1a
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 6.4.6.2 release
Hardware: All
OS: Linux (All)
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: trivial
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: jan-ake.lars...@liu.se
Description:
As I understand it, PDF/A-1a is more restrictive than PDF/A-1b.
My organization requires archiving in PDF/A-1a, and several of our users will
start exporting to it. Since only PDF/A-1b is available in the dialog, our
support advises using another converter, or moving away from libreoffice.
My test (using verapdf) tells me that selecting PDF/A-1b in the dialog exports
PDF/A-1a.
- Is this expected behavior?
- Will this always work?
- What is the reason for writing the less restrictive PDF/A-1b in the dialog
- Why do the docs only mention PDF/A-1a?
If the export is PDF/A-1a, I'd recommend to write that in the dialog.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Attempt to export PDF/A-1b
Actual Results:
Obtain PDF/A-1a (which is better!)
Expected Results:
I'd expect to obtain PDF/A-1b. Since PDF/A-1a does obey PDF/A-1b, my
expectations are fulfilled.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
Display that PDF/A-1a will be generated in the export dialog
