[veraPDF-users] value type for /AF entry
by Pablo Rodriguez 17 Mar '19

17 Mar '19

Dear list, validating a PDF/A-3 document with an attachment, the latest development version of veraPDF complains of missing /AF reference in /Catalog, /Page or similar element. I found https://www.pdfa.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/PDF20_AN002-AF.pdf. But in order to report the issue to the PDF creation tool, I need to know for sure which is the value type and the value of the /AF entry. I guess it should be an array of one or multiple /EmbeddedFile object references, such as in: /AF [8 0 R 10 0 R 40 0 R] Could anyone confirm this? Many thanks for your help, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk

[veraPDF-users] HTML report in Command Line Interface
by Pavlásková Eliška 15 Mar '19

Dear all, I would like to ask you for advice with VeraPDF command line interface. My institution (Charles University) use Vera as a validator of students' thesis. Students are supposed to submit thesis in PDF/A format and pass validation test based on our custom profile. In case of failure they get a VeraPDF xml report. Problem is that XML report is not very user-friendly. We would like to use HTML report with links to validation rules wiki, but it doesn't seem to be possible from CLI. Is there any solution of this? Has anyone tried to use html report from CLI? Thank you in advance Eliška Pavlásková
