So does this mean that ghostscript basically is able to produce PDF/A-1a
compliant
pdf documents if the input file contains all the necessary information?

I've grepped in the gs source and at least the thing with the MarkInfo entry
(which is required
by standard for PDF/A documents) isn't implemented yet. Maybe tagged pdfs
can be produced
but I nowhere found code that generates the MarkInfo entry.

So I'm wondering if there are still points from the standard that haven't
been implemented so far.
Since I would like to fix these missing points it would be very helpful to
have some sort of list
of known deviations from the standard.

 Jakob
