| can-of-bees | ray_laptop: hey, thank you! | 00:53.13 |
| | sorry, i was away from the irc window for a bit. | 00:53.33 |
| | if it's in the XML metadata on the pdf, would something like exifTool be able to get at it? | 00:54.13 |
| | apologies for the questions and thank you for your time | 00:54.26 |
| ray_laptop | can-of-bees: sorry, I was away. | 02:07.09 |
| | exiftool seems to be oriented toward image formats. PDF/A is *NOT* an image format. It is essentially a full fledged PDF file, constrained to avoid some common problems that make it unsuitable for "archive" (missing fonts and other "external" resources), so it is self contained | 02:08.51 |
| | can-of-bees: I added -dDumpXML to toolbin/pdf_info.ps in case you are interested. Since it spews to stdout, you can then feed it to grep/awk whatever to look for clues about PDF/A etc. | 03:27.54 |
| | can-of-bees: you can get it from: http://git.ghostscript.com/?p=user/ray/ghostpdl.git;a=commitdiff;h=7deb29743a2d539b23b0ad8809ccec21f4f47c0c | 03:28.06 |
| kens | can-of-bees You cannot trust the declared version of a PDF file. Many tools have been seen to modify the PDF file, use features from a later version of the PDF specification, and not update the PDF version. | 07:54.32 |
| | The /Version in the catalog dictionary of the Root entry is much more reliable, but is only present from version 1.4 onwards | 07:56.41 |
| | and even there it is optional | 07:57.10 |
| can-of-bees | whoops - thanks kens and ray_laptop for the feedback and good information. | 14:25.39 |
| kens | away | 17:09.23 |
| sebras | tor8 (for the logs): shouldn't something depend on the build.xml make target? | 18:52.54 |
| | also why is the version code 11000? I'm guessing it is correct and i just don't know the background. | 18:53.48 |
| | tor8: oh and the trick for $X in the script was nice. why have I never thought of that one?! | 18:56.06 |
| | tor8: all of it lgtm, obviously. | 18:56.20 |
| | since nothing depends on build.xml I had to make build.xml && make to have it build. | 18:58.22 |
| | Forward 1 day (to 2017/02/08)>>> | |
