Hi,

Is it possible to convert Cad files to PDFA?
If yes, what types of PDFA is compatible?
Can it convert to PDF/A-2b?

and how about all other types of documents - Is it possible to convert Slides, Cells, Word an so on to PDF/A?

Best of regards
Nicolas

@NHolleran,
Hi.

You can try this option (only PDF/A-1a and PDF/A-1b are available):

PdfOptions pdfOptions = new PdfOptions();
pdfOptions.CorePdfOptions = new Aspose.CAD.ImageOptions.PdfDocumentOptions();
pdfOptions.CorePdfOptions.Compliance = Aspose.CAD.ImageOptions.PdfCompliance.PdfA1a;

I redirect this branch to Aspose.Total Forum and modify its title a bit, my colleagues will answer about other products.

@NHolleran,
You can use Aspose.Slides for .NET to convert PowerPoint presentations to PDFA formats as follows:

var pdfOptions = new PdfOptions
{
    Compliance = PdfCompliance.PdfA2b
};

var presentation = new Presentation("sample.pptx");
presentation.Save("output.pdf", SaveFormat.Pdf, pdfOptions);

Please take a look at the PdfCompliance enum to check out all PDFA formats supported by Aspose.Slides. Please let us know if some of the formats you need are missing.

@NHolleran,

You can use Aspose.Cells for .NET to convert Excel files to PDF/A compliant PDF format, see the supported PdfCompliance API reference page. Also, here is the sample code segment for your reference:

// Open the Excel file
Workbook workbook = new Workbook("Book1.xlsx");
// Define PdfSaveOptions
PdfSaveOptions pdfSaveOptions = new PdfSaveOptions();
// Set the compliance type
pdfSaveOptions.Compliance = PdfCompliance.PdfA1b;
// Save the file
workbook.Save("output.pdf", pdfSaveOptions);

Additionally, see the document with example code on how to convert Excel files to PDF/A for your complete reference.

@NHolleran You can convert Word documents to PDF/A by specifying compliance in PdfSaveOptions. Please see our documentation for more information:
