Description

We (Atos Worldline) donate our PDF/A validator to the PDFBox project. This product is based on PDFBox and a javacc parser. Before this donation, the product was already distributed under Apache Licence 2. Its current name is padaf.
Padaf complies the isartor test suite.
This version depends on standard PDFBox 1.5.0 version. Only one test class does not compile with current HEAD (on 27 of june), all other test cases pass.

Padaf is composed of 2 modules :

• preflight : the validator
• xmpbox : an other implementation of xmp parser and writer. We make that choice because we did not have the time to propose all necessary modification in jempbox.

The attached tar ball contains :

• sources of the 2 modules
• junit tests for each one
• a parent (that will soon disappear) already depending on pdfbox-parent

These are SHA1 for each attached file
