PDF to PDF/A: Raster Archive

Private browser processing

Create a PDF/A-2b raster copy with an embedded sRGB profile and archival metadata. Up to 50 pages and 50 MB. Validate the final file with your archive’s accepted validator.

Choose PDF

I understand this produces image-only pages, removing selectable text, links, forms, attachments and valid signatures. I will keep the original.

What this export preserves

The visible page is rendered at up to 144 DPI and encoded as JPEG. The export embeds a color profile and PDF/A identification metadata. It does not preserve accessibility structure, selectable text, interactive features or vector detail. This is not suitable when your archive requires searchable text or PDF/A-2u.
