I am having an Aspose.Words license and I want to save a word document directly as a PDF/A. You said that Words supports this conversion. Do I need to have to products from you in order to have this functionality?

Hi Laurentiu,

Thanks for your inquiry. Yes, you can just use the following C# code of Aspose.Words for .NET API to convert Word document to PDF/A-1a or PDF/A-1b standard:

Document doc = new Document(MyDir + @"in.docx");
PdfSaveOptions opts = new PdfSaveOptions();

opts.Compliance = PdfCompliance.PdfA1a;

doc.Save(MyDir + @"17.4.pdf", opts);

Hope, this helps.

Best regards,
