Conversion to PDFA-2A is not compliant

Wen we use .NET Conversion (23.8) to convert an existing PDF to PDFA-2A the result ist not compliant to this standard. Some files work, but many are not compliant.

Check with a online tool revealed the following error:

  • ISO 19005-2:2011
  • 6.6.2.3
  • The Schema type is an XMP structure containing the definition of an extension schema. The field namespace URI is “http://www.aiim.org/pdfa/ns/schema#”.

The Schema type includes the following fields: pdfaSchema:schema (Text), pdfaSchema:namespaceURI (URI), pdfaSchema:prefix (Text), pdfaSchema:property (Seq Property), pdfaSchema:valueType (Seq ValueType).

Could you kindly provide the Conversion code? Additionally, it would be greatly appreciated if you could share the specifics of your development environment where the issue can be replicated.

this is pretty straight forward:

        using var converter = new Converter(() => source, () => null);
        var convertOptions = new PdfConvertOptions
            {
                Format = PdfFileType.Pdf,
                PdfOptions = new PdfOptions
                {
                    PdfFormat = PdfFormats.PdfA_2A,
                },
          };

        var pdfStream = new MemoryStream();

	converter.Convert(() => pdfStream, convertOptions);
