Aspose.PDF removes PDF/A compliance from some PDFs on save

Hi.

Scenario: Open PDF/A file using Aspose.PDF, then save it to a new file.

Issue: Resulting file is no longer PDF/A (open new PDF in Foxit or Adobe reader and see that apps do not show “File is PDF/A compliant” message). The issue happens not with all PDF/A files.

Questions:

  • Why is PDF/A compliance removed?
  • I expect the PDF/A compliance not to be removed for all PDF/A files. Why is the behavior not consistent?
  • Is there a workaround?

Code sample:

using (var d = new Document(path))
{
    d.Save(path + ".resaved.pdf");
}

sample pdfa files.zip (862.4 KB)

For internal reference MDP-13063.

Thanks.
