Reliable and durable reproduction together with a recognized level of legal and audit compliance are indispensable features for the long-term preservation and archiving of electronic documents.​

The PDF/A format provides the legal certainty you need for long-term archiving and is one reason why it has been an ISO standard since 2005. The format has been perfected since then, and now we have to distinguish between the original PDF/A-1 edition and the newer versions PDF/A-2 and PDF/A-3 that provide additional features. The overriding advantage of this file format is that the documents themselves contain all the elements needed for reproduction.

Since 2012-06-06, webPDF version 4.0 has been available. This version includes a new file converter for additional file formats, supports PDF/A-2 and PDF/A-3 standards, and provides an improved web portal.

This year's event once again highlighted the growing importance of PDF/A.​

International projects and the conference itself show that this format is becoming the global standard for long-term archiving. As PDF/A adoption grows, the PDF/A Competence Center continues to gain members. At the conference, the association welcomed T-Systems as its 100th member.
