Upload your PDF, select a PDF/A conformance level, and click Convert. The tool scans for non‑compliant features (JavaScript, embedded files, unembedded fonts), strips the disallowed ones, adds the required XMP metadata declaring PDF/A compliance, and lets you download the resulting archival‑ready PDF.

PDF to PDF/A
🔒
Your PDF is processed entirely in your browser nothing is uploaded to a server.
ℹ️ This applies the fixes a browser-based tool can actually make removing JavaScript, embedded files, and encryption, then declaring PDF/A conformance in the file’s metadata. It cannot verify or guarantee full ISO 19005 compliance (that also depends on font embedding and color profiles baked into the file when it was first created). For a legally-critical archival submission, validate the result with a dedicated checker like veraPDF before relying on it.
