</div>PDF/A and PDF X/a-1 are different animals. To pass muster at LSI<br>
the following tags must be present:<br>
<br>
%PDF-1.3<br>
...<br>
/GTS_PDFXVersion (PDF/X-1:2001)<br>
/GTS_PDFXConformance (PDF/X-1a:2001)<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
Will Ghostscriipt embed those tags?<br clear="all"></blockquote></div><br>I hope so. You can try put this in PDFA_def.ps file. <br><br>From GS docs (c:/Program files/gs/gs9.06/doc/Ps2pdf.htm#PDFA):<br><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class="gmail_quote">
<h2>8 Creating a PDF/A document</h2><p>
To create a PDF/A document, please follow the instructions for <a>creating a PDF/X-3 document</a>,
with the following exceptions :
</p><ul><li> Specify the <code>pdfwrite</code> device or use the <code>ps2pdf</code> script.
</li><li> Specify the <code>-dPDFA</code> option to specify PDF/A-1 or PDF/A-2.
</li><li> Specify <code>-sProcessColorModel=DeviceGray</code>, <code>-sProcessColorModel=DeviceRGB</code> or <code>-sProcessColorModel=DeviceCMYK</code>
You must specify a ProcessColorModel, even if you plan
to create a device-independent colour PDF file using -dUseCIEColor.
</li><li> Specify the <code>-dUseCIEColor</code> option if necessary (see PDF/X above).
</li><li> Specify a PDF/A definition file before running the input document.
It provides additional information to be included in the output document.
A sample PDF/A definition file may be found in <code>gs/lib/PDFA_def.ps</code>.
You will need to modify the content of this file; in particular you must alter the
/ICCProfile so that it points to a valid ICC profile for your OutputIntent. The
string '(...)' defining the ICCProfile must be a fully qualified device and path
specification appropriate for your Operating System.
</li></ul>
There is one additional control for PDF/A output:
<dl><dt><code>PDFACompatibilityPolicy</code> <em>integer</em>
</dt><dd>When an operation (eg pdfmark) is encountered which cannot be
emitted in a PDF/A compliant file, this policy is consulted, there are
currently three possible values:
<blockquote>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.
</blockquote>
</dd><dd>
<blockquote>1 - The feature or operation is ignored, the resulting PDF
file will be PDF/A compliant. A warning wil be emitted for every elided
feature.
</blockquote>
</dd><dd>
<blockquote>2 - Processing of the file is aborted with an error, the exact error may vary
depending on the nature of the PDF/A incompatibility.
</blockquote>
</dd></dl>
Here is a sample command line to invoke Ghostscript for generating a PDF/A document :
<blockquote><code>
gs -dPDFA=1 -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -dNOOUTERSAVE -dUseCIEColor
-sProcessColorModel=DeviceCMYK -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=out-a.pdf
PDFA_def.ps <a href="http://input.ps">input.ps</a>
</code></blockquote></blockquote>
