PageTech Becomes 1st US Member Of PDF/A Competence Center
San Diego (USA), 23 November: PageTech, leading provider of PCL transformation tools for developers, announced that it has become the first U.S. member of PDFA Competence Center. Headquartered in Berlin, Germany, the PDFA organization is a liaison of the world's foremost companies in PDF technology. The aim of PDFA Competence Center is to promote the exchange of information and experience in the area of long-term archiving in accordance with the new International Standards Organization's ISO 19005: PDFA file format.
New PDFA standard is a product of over 3 years of collaboration by AIIM, Adobe, NPES, ARMA, NARA, Library of Congress, U.S. Courts and many other organizations. It was necessary to define this device-independent and self-contained derivative of PDF format that could be internationally accepted as new standard for long-term electronic archiving. PDFA is also self-documenting and transparent to direct analysis with basic tools for indexing. Because of its various benefits, PDFA will eventually replace TIFF format as the de facto standard for document archiving.
Earlier this year, PageTech was the first PCL to PDF product vendor to convert PCL raster image and character objects into the smallest PDFs using the Adobe's JBIG2 compression method.
