About PDF to PDF/A
PDF to PDF/A normalizes your document's metadata and ensures it's free of encryption — the parts of PDF/A readiness PDFDroid can reliably do in-browser. It does not run full certified PDF/A conformance validation (like veraPDF), so treat the result as best-effort rather than certified-compliant.

Frequently asked questions
Is the output a certified PDF/A file?
No — PDFDroid performs the metadata and structural steps it can do reliably in the browser, but does not run certified conformance validation. For legal archival requirements, verify with a dedicated PDF/A validator.
