This is an old revision of the document!


Recognizing that we will eventually re-create the Publication Formats as technology changes, we still want to respect the archival aspect of the Series and minimize reformatting where possible.

ISO standard 32000-1 (not Adobe 1.8 nor the 2.0 draft)

Currently also contemplating:

  • PDF/A - series of ISO 19005 standards
    • Pros: Will minimize issues such as font availability and lessen the need for future reformatting
    • Cons: Likely more expensive to implement
  • PDF/UA - ISO 14289-1
    • Pros: all the usual good reasons to make documents more accessible
    • Cons: relatively new; uncertain as to long term support; unsure if this is necessary given the intent to make HTML docs follow W3C Accessibility Guidelines
