PDFALevel

The PDFALevel property defines the part and conformance level for the PDF/A document. This property is available only through the PrinterParamInt method.

Syntax

ActiveX:

DLL:

Parameters

This a 16-bit integer with the low byte value containing the PDF/A part(Part 1 or 3)and the high-byte value the conformance level (Level A, B or U).

Return Value

SetPrinterParamInt returns 1 if successful, 0 otherwise; GetPrinterParamInt returns the current value for the property.

Remarks

By default, PDF Converter will generate PDF/A-1b files, PDF/A part 1 and conformance Level B.

Example

Visual Basic .Net
C#
C++
Java
PowerShell
VBScript
