ghoffmeyer Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 At the Moment I'm using jasperreports 4.1.2. As far as I can read in the API, there is PDF/A Conformance only for PDF/A-1a and PDF/A-1b. Is In the newer Versions also Support of PDF/A-2 and PDF/A-3?

peter.w Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Hi AFAIK its still only /A-1a and /A-1b. I must admit the two people I know who know about the differences between /A-1 /A-2 and /A-3 see little point in /A-2. And don't really see /A-3 as an improvement at all and mostly think that /A-3 breaks the PDF mould. I honestly I do not see how you would go about embeding alternative document formats in a consistant way using Jasper any how. I must admit I am not even sure if Adobe Distiller/LiveCycle Generator/Server supports /A-3 fully yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghoffmeyer Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 I use JasperReports to create serveral types of documents. One of these documents is an invoice. In germany there is a new specification for transfering invoices, it's called "ZUGFeRD". In these specification it there has to be an xml-file embedded in an PDF/A-3 File.Does anyone else see a chance to generate a PDF/A-3 document from an jasperreport?

The Dentist Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I have to second the request for PDF/A-2. In order to comply to a specification important to our work, we would have good use for this. For us, this is really not a matter of 'because we can', but of 'because we have to'. Are there any chances to see this supported in the near future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ma_il Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 In theory, PDF/A-1 should be a subset of PDF/A-3 and thus work as well. Did you make any progress on the ZUGFeRD integration? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghoffmeyer Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 At the moment I only use jasper to create the PDF. After the PDF is created I call an external program to insert the XML invoice data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edwin.dhondt_1 Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 I have to second the request for PDF/A-2 as well as A-3: comply to a recent specification is a must. Any chance A-2 and A-3 will be supported in the near future ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sucd1905 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Darf man fragen wie der aktuelle Stand bei dir ist bzgl. ZUGFeRD? Wir nutzen auch iReport zum erstellen der PDFs. Da wir diese zukünftig auch als ZUGFeRD-Rechnung ausgeben wollen, suchen wir aktuell nach einer Lösung. Vielleicht kann man sich mal austauschen...

djohnson53 Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Translating the German Comment above: Can you ask how the current status is with you regarding ZUGFeRD? We also use iReport to create the PDFs. Since we want to spend this as a ZUGFeRD invoice in the future, we are currently looking for a solution. Maybe you can exchange views ...

r.vandenheuvel Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 This post is a bit older but also need to know if jasper reports supports pdf a/3 by the use of a handy method. Or is it only a matter of setting up properties to support a bunch of metadata? a/3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javageek_1 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I'm also interested in the question - can I create PDF/A-3 in Java using JasperReports? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alainlompo Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Any progress regarding support for PDF/A-2 in 2022? I have looked in the PdfaConformanceEnum here: https://sourceforge.net/p/jasperreports/code/ci/master/tree/jasperreports/src/net/sf/jasperreports/export/type/PdfaConformanceEnum.java and could only see Support for PDF/A-1a and 1b, which considering the timespan since the integration of the support for PDF/A-1 (2011), let me think that there is definitely no plans for supporting PDF/A-2 and PDF/A-3 as well. Any update/relevant info is welcomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
