They are part of the PDF/A-3 and also for the PDF-2.0 specification.

In PDF/A-3, they are mandatory for embedded files. (I don’t know whether
they are optional in PDF-2.0, but I guess they are.)

Hans,

I realized that the values for the /AFRelationship key that I provided
in a previous message, are the ones defined for PDF-2.0 (Source, Data,
Alternative, Supplement, EncryptedPayload, FormData, Schema or Unspecified).

According to
https://www.loc.gov/preservation/digital/formats/fdd/fdd000360.shtml,
values for the /AFRelationShip key in PDF/A-3 are only: Source, Data,
Alternative, Supplement, and Unspecified.

If you allow me a suggestion, maybe it would be useful to have two new
options in the \setupattachment command:

   relationship  =  source data alternative supplement unspecified

   association   =  document page

The default values could be document and unspecified. The user should
know what to do when changing these defaults.

Of course, the /AF entry can be placed in other PDF objects, but
document and page are enough options to start with.

hm, these keys look like rubish to me, do they really serve a purpose?

[dev-context] two proposals for attachments in PDF/A-3

2019-03-24 Thread Pablo Rodriguez
Hans,

I realized that the values for the /AFRelationship key that I provided
in a previous message, are the ones defined for PDF-2.0 (Source, Data,
Alternative, Supplement, EncryptedPayload, FormData, Schema or Unspecified).

According to
https://www.loc.gov/preservation/digital/formats/fdd/fdd000360.shtml,
values for the /AFRelationShip key in PDF/A-3 are only: Source, Data,
Alternative, Supplement, and Unspecified.

If you allow me a suggestion, maybe it would be useful to have two new
options in the \setupattachment command:

  relationship  =  source data alternative supplement unspecified

  association   =  document page

The default values could be document and unspecified. The user should
know what to do when changing these defaults.

Of course, the /AF entry can be placed in other PDF objects, but
document and page are enough options to start with.

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
