As already described in the first part of our blog series, PDF/A - The format of the future - Part 1: PDF/A-1, the PDF/A format (A = Archive) is already used very successfully for archiving data.

The Portable Document Format (PDF) established itself many years ago as the medium for sharing documents in a form that works everywhere. With it, electronic versions of documents can be faithfully presented, opened, and printed independent of operating system and software. The author can specify at the outset in what form the document will be rendered visible. PDF eliminates all those problems that previously arose when transmitting documents, such as formatting errors and other issues stemming from the recipient using a different system than that of the sender.

Many companies use SAP software to manage their documents. In this way, it is possible to create efficient structures even with large amounts of data. However, if it is necessary to archive the files for a long time, some problems may occur. webPDF offers a conversion software that also offers a suitable solution for this area. This makes it possible to store all files according to the PDF/A standard.
