This repo contains a JSON definition and schema for all PDF Declarations recognized by the PDF Association and as published on this page: https://pdfa.org/declarations/.

The JSON strings provide standardized text for use in identifying PDF Declarations in user interfaces or reports. In each string, the key is the URI for a PDF Declaration and the value is the PDF Association's display string intended for use by software.

If you want to add a PDF Declaration to the PDF Association's Declaration index, please contact [email protected].

For more information about PDF Declarations, please see the latest PDF Declarations Specification.

This repo also contains a JSON schema useful in validating the JSON data (e.g., using the Python CLI check-jsonschema):

$ check-jsonschema --schemafile .\declarations\pdf-declarations.schema.json .\declarations\pdf-declarations.json
ok -- validation done
