Bug ID: 147847
Summary: Document PDF/A-1a output possibility
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: medium
Component: Writer
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Description:
LibreOffice exports PDF/A-1a when asked to export to PDF/A-1b. This can be
tested with the verapdf tool.
It must be an explicit choice in the code since the output PDF claims PDF/A-1a
compliance, and indeed also is compliant to the standard.
Important: This is not about accessibility (PDF/UA) but archive PDFs (PDF/A).
If the export is PDF/A-1a, I'd recommend to write that in the dialog.
Perhaps the export is not always PDF/A-1a but sometimes only the less
structured PDF/A-1b (as the export dialog claims).
Then please document when this happens.
At least document that LibreOffice sometimes outputs PDF/A-1a compliant
documents, in the export dialog, or in the docs.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Export PDF/A-1b compliant PDF
Actual Results:
Obtain (undocumented) PDF/A-1a compliant PDF
Expected Results:
See the difference
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
Additional Info:
The software should indicate what is possible to do
