Meeting Notes

Stephen on how standards are implemented in the ISO community.

PDF/A-3 doesn't necessarily replace A-1 or A-2. Should be able to use a PDF/A-1 file 30 years from now. The methodology used should not change for rendering these files in the future.

PDF/A movement highly influenced by manufacturers, now PDF/A center, dominated by the Germans. Had many use cases for instances where creators wanted to include the original files wihtin a PDF/A document.

Brazilian government wanted to preserve their material as XML but XML wasn't trusted by users because of complexity. Wanted to make a more presentation-ready format but didn't want to throw away the XML.
