pdfACompatibilityPolicy

policy

int

When an operation (e.g. pdfmark) is encountered which cannot be emitted in a PDF/A compliant file, this policy is consulted, there are currently three possible values:

  • 0: (default) Include the feature or operation in the output file, the file will not be PDF/A compliant. Because the document Catalog is emitted before this is encountered, the file will still contain PDF/A metadata but will not be compliant. A warning will be emitted in this case.

  • 1: The feature or operation is ignored, the resulting PDF file will be PDF/A compliant. A warning will be emitted for every elided feature.

  • 2: Processing of the file is aborted with an error, the exact error may vary depending on the nature of the PDF/A incompatibility.
