Hi


We are using aspose.pdf to update certain fields in existing pdf document.

Pdf version is 1.3 before updating the fields, and it gets changed to 1.5 after flushing it to web.

Also why it adds following additional fonts in the pdf:
  • Helvetica (NOT embedded)
  • Zapfdingbats (NOT embedded)
Is there a way to set the desired version of output pdf to 1.3 and not add these additional fonts.
