PDF/A unlock

Post by Woody44 »

I frequently deal with PDF documents in the PDF/A (Archival) format.

It would be helpful in FlexiPDF would display a message or header or flag of some kind that visibly and prominently notifies the user when a document is in PDF/A format.

In FlexiPDF, how to I disable PDF/A to allow editing the document?

I have forwarded this improvement suggestion.

FlexiPDF does not have a PDF/A mode that must be disabled. Open the file, edit it normally, and then select File | Save as to save it as a regular PDF. Do not select Save as PDF/A.

If the editing tools are unavailable, check Document | Security. The document may have password-based editing restrictions, as PDF/A itself does not prevent editing in FlexiPDF.

For more information, please refer to the FlexiPDF manual.
