Frequently asked questions
Is the result fully PDF/A compliant?
It is a best-effort conversion. It does not embed fonts that are missing from the original, so a strict validator can still reject some files. For guaranteed compliance, export as PDF/A directly from Word or LibreOffice.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. It is converted in your browser.
Does it change how the document looks?
No. Only hidden scripts and metadata change; the pages stay the same.
