Hi,
We are using the Aspose words to convert a word document to the PDF. The PDF file generated is as per PDF 1.5 specification. We want the output PDF to be of the type PDF 1.4 specification. Is there a way to change the setting so that the PDF output is of the PDF1.4 version instead of 1.5. If this is not possible can you please suggest an alternate way to convert PDF 1.5 to PDF 1.4. The PDF we need to convert is of size more than 50MB.
Thanks.

Hi
Madhura,
In addition, you can use Aspose.Pdf component to be able to perform this conversion. Please see the following code snippet:
//open document
Document pdfDocument = new Document("d:/pdftest/test2.pdf");
// create conversion log file
pdfDocument.Convert("D:/pdftest/ConversionLog.txt", PdfFormat.v_1_4, ConvertErrorAction.Delete);
// save the updated document
pdfDocument.Save("d:/pdftest/Converted_Document.pdf");
I hope, this will help.
Best Regards,
Hi,
Thanks for the reply.
For using the Aspose.Pdf component do we need to download any additional jar other than aspose.pdf-3.2.jdk.16.jar but i am not able to find the document and PDFFormat in the jar.
Could you please let me know if I should download some additional jars?
Thanks
Hi
Madhura,
Please download the jar files of Aspose.Pdf for Java from following link. Let us know if you have any more queries.
Hi,
I have downloaded the aspose.pdf-3.2.jdk15.jar but the below code is not compiling. The downloaded jar does not have Document class in it. Please let me know the additional jars required so that I can execute the below code.
Thanks.
Document pdfDocument = new Document("d:/pdftest/test2.pdf");<?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = O />
// create conversion log file
pdfDocument.Convert("D:/pdftest/ConversionLog.txt", PdfFormat.v_1_4, ConvertErrorAction.Delete);
// save the updated document
pdfDocument.Save("d:/pdftest/Converted_Document.pdf");
