Can Words save to PDF/A

Aspose.Words Product Family

Hi, I’m using aspose for archival Office Doc to PDF conversion. I’d like all the docs to be in PDF/A format. Is there an option for say the Words Document.save(“Document.Doc2PdfSave test.doc”) function to save to PDF/A. Or do I need to first save to PDF, then use the PDF library to get a PDF/A?

Hi Erich,
Yes, you can use the following code to save to PDF/A using Aspose.Words.

Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Rendering.doc");
PdfSaveOptions options = new PdfSaveOptions();
options.setCompliance(PdfCompliance.PDF_A_1_B); 
doc.save(getMyDir() + "Rendering.SaveToPdfWithOutlineOut.pdf", options);

You can also export to PDF using Aspose.Words and then use Aspose.Pdf to save to PDF/A so both approaches can work.
Best Regards,
