11、E) iv ISO 2011 All rights reservedForeword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body int
12、erested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnic
13、al Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the
14、technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights.
15、ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 19005-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 171, Document management applications, Subcommittee SC 2, Application issues in cooperation with ISO/TC 130, Graphic technology, ISO/TC 42, Photography, and ISO/TC
16、46, Information and documentation, Subcommittee SC 11, Archives/records management, in a joint working group. ISO 19005 consists of the following parts, under the general title Document management Electronic document file format for long-term preservation: Part 1: Use of PDF 1.4 (PDF/A-1) Part 2: Us
17、e of ISO 32000-1 (PDF/A-2) The following parts are under preparation: Part 3: Use of ISO 32000-1 with support for embedded files (PDF/A-3) BS ISO 19005-2:2011ISO 19005-2:2011(E) ISO 2011 All rights reserved vIntroduction PDF is a digital format for representing page-based documents. PDF files can be
18、 created natively in PDF form, converted from other electronic formats or digitized from paper, microform, or other hard copy format. Businesses, governments, libraries, archives and other institutions and individuals around the world use PDF to represent considerable bodies of important information
19、. Much of this information needs to be kept for substantial lengths of time; some needs to be kept permanently. These PDF files need to remain useable and accessible across multiple generations of technology. However, the inclusive, feature-rich nature of the format requires that constraints be plac
20、ed on its use to make it suitable for the long-term preservation of electronic documents. The future use of, and access to, these objects depends upon maintaining their visual appearance as well as their higher-order properties, such as the logical organization of pages, sections, and paragraphs, ma
21、chine recoverable text stream in natural reading order, and a variety of administrative, preservation and descriptive metadata. ISO 19005 has been created as a multi-part document, of which this is Part 2. This allows future parts to be created without rendering ISO 19005, or applications based on i
22、t, obsolete. The primary purpose of ISO 19005 is to define a file format based on PDF, known as PDF/A, which provides a mechanism for representing electronic documents in a manner that preserves their static visual appearance over time, independent of the tools and systems used for creating, storing
23、 or rendering the files. A secondary purpose of ISO 19005 is to define a framework for representing the logical structure and other semantic information of electronic documents within conforming files. Another purpose of ISO 19005 is to provide a framework for recording the context and history of el
24、ectronic documents in metadata within conforming files. These goals are accomplished by identifying the set of PDF components that can be used, and restrictions on the form of their use, within conforming PDF/A files. By itself, PDF/A does not necessarily ensure that the visual appearance of the con
25、tent accurately reflects any original source material used to create the conforming file, e.g. the process used to create a conforming file might substitute fonts, reflow text, downsample images or use lossy compression. Organizations that need to ensure that a conforming file is an accurate represe
26、ntation of original source material might need to impose additional requirements, such as the best practices in Annex C, on the processes that generate the conforming file beyond those imposed by this part of ISO 19005. In addition, it is important for those organizations to implement policies and p
27、ractices regarding the inspection of conforming files for correct visual appearance. PDF/A does not directly address the topic of authenticity, either for the underlying content to be visually represented or for the PDF/A file itself. Such authenticity is generally considered to be important for leg
28、al, regulatory and governance purposes and is beyond the scope of this International Standard. This part of ISO 19005 is one component of an organizations electronic archival environment for long-term retention of documents. Successful implementation of this part of ISO 19005 for archival purposes d
29、epends upon the following: the retention requirements of an organizations archival environment, records management policies and procedures, as specified in ISO 15489-1; any additional requirements and conditions necessary to ensure the persistence of electronic documents and their characteristics ov
30、er time, including, but not limited to, those defined in ISO 14721, ISO/TR 15801, and ISO/TR 18492; BS ISO 19005-2:2011ISO 19005-2:2011(E) vi ISO 2011 All rights reserved the quality assurance processes necessary to verify conformance with applicable requirements and conditions, e.g. an inspection r
31、egime to verify the quality and integrity of converted source data. This part of ISO 19005 is intended to lead to the development of various applications that read, render, write and validate conforming files. Different applications will incorporate various capabilities to prepare, interpret and pro
32、cess conforming files based on needs as perceived by the suppliers of those applications. However, it is important to note that a conforming application needs to be able to read and process appropriately all files complying with a specified conformance level. This part of ISO 19005 extends the capab
33、ilities of ISO 19005-1. It is based on PDF version 1.7 (as defined in ISO 32000-1) rather than PDF version 1.4 (which is used as the basis of ISO 19005-1). These added capabilities are made possible through compliance with ISO 32000-1 and include improvements to tagged PDF (for enhanced accessibilit
34、y), Compressed Object and XRef streams (for smaller file sizes), PDF/A-compliant file attachments, portable collections and PDF packages, transparency, and JPEG 2000 compression. This part of ISO 19005 (in conjunction with its normative references) provides sufficient information to interpret any co
35、nforming PDF/A-2 file. NPES and AIIM (accredited standards developing organizations) maintain an ongoing series of application notes for guiding developers and users of ISO 19005. These application notes are available at and . Both NPES and AIIM also retain copies of the specific non-ISO normative r
36、eferences of this part of ISO 19005 which are publicly available electronic documents.
