About this tool

PDF to PDF/A is an archival conversion with rules about fonts, color, and metadata. This version will not stamp a PDF/A claim on a file it did not validate. A false archival label is worse than no label, because a records office might accept it. If a portal demands PDF/A, use a checker you trust on a machine you control, not a badge from a site that received the record.

PDF to PDF/A stays on this device. The download is the copy you keep, and Weesize does not store a second one. Close the tab when you are finished and the bytes are gone.

  • No upload: the file is not uploaded to receive an archival badge this app cannot verify.
  • Speed: the file does not travel to a server and back, so the wait is only the work itself.
  • Quality: the original is kept when the new file would be worse or is not actually smaller.
