Introduction
0.1 PDF
PDF enables users to exchange and view electronic documents easily and reliably, independent of the
environment in which they were created or the environment in which they are viewed or printed.
At the core of PDF is an advanced imaging model derived from the PostScript® page description
language. This PDF Imaging Model enables the description of text and graphics in a device-independent
and resolution-independent manner at a complete, precise and professional level. Unlike PostScript,
which is a programming language, PDF is based on a structured binary file format that is optimised for
high performance in interactive viewing.
PDF includes objects such as annotations and hypertext links that are not part of the page content itself
but are useful for interactive viewing and document interchange. PDF also includes data structures
such as tagged PDF, XMP and an associated files mechanism, that are useful for document management
and content reuse.
PDF files can be created natively in PDF form, converted from other electronic formats. Since PDF
supports a wide range of image and compression technologies, it is a suitable format for documents
digitised from paper, microform, or other hard copy formats. Businesses, governments, libraries,
archives and other institutions and individuals around the world use PDF to represent considerable
bodies of important information. Since its introduction in 1993, aided by the explosive growth of the
Internet, PDF has become widely used for the electronic exchange of documents.
There are several specific applications of PDF that have evolved in which limiting the use of some
features of PDF while requiring the use of others, enhances the usefulness of PDF. The following
International Standards address specialised uses of PDF:
• PDF/X (ISO 15930) is the industry standard for the intermediate representation of printed
material in electronic prepress systems for conventional printing applications.
• PDF/A (ISO 19005) is the industry standard for the archiving of digital documents.
• PDF/UA (ISO 14289) is the industry standard for accessible PDF documents and processors.
• PDF/E (ISO 24517) provides a mechanism for representing engineering documents and
exchanging engineering data.
• PDF/VT (ISO 16612-2 and ISO 16612-3) is for high volume printing of personalised
documents including variable data.
• ISO 19593 describes a method for storing data in a PDF file that correspond to the processing
steps of printed products (such as cutting, folding, glueing, Braille, printed white, and printed
varnish).
• ISO 21812 describes how document part metadata in a PDF file can be used to communicate
the intended appearance of print products and their components.

replacing paper-based workflows with electronic exchange of information, the impact and opportunity
for the application of PDF will continue to grow at a rapid pace.
PDF, together with software for creating, viewing, printing and processing PDF files in a variety of
ways, fulfils a set of requirements for electronic documents including:
• preservation of document fidelity independent of the device, platform, and software,
• merging of content from diverse sources — Web sites, word processing and spreadsheet
programs, scanned documents, photos, and graphics — into one self-contained document
while maintaining the integrity of all original source documents,
• an extensible metadata model at the document and object level,
• collaborative editing of documents from multiple locations or platforms,
• digital signatures to certify authenticity,
• security and permissions to allow the creator to retain control of the document and associated
rights,
• accessibility of content to those with disabilities,
• extraction and reuse of content for use with other file formats and applications, and
• electronic forms to gather and/or represent data within business systems.
0.2 ISO 32000 and PDF
PDF was developed and specified by Adobe Systems Incorporated beginning in 1993 and continuing
until 2007 when ISO 32000-1 was first prepared. The Adobe Systems version PDF 1.7 was the basis for
ISO 32000-1. The ISO 32000 series has been created as a multi-part document, of which this is Part 2.
This allows future parts to be created without rendering ISO 32000, or applications based on it,
obsolete. See clause 5, "Version designations" for how the version numbers of PDF (1.0, 1.1, 1.2, […]
2.0) relate to one another.
The primary purpose of this document is to define well-formed PDF documents (conforming PDF files).
In carefully specifying what constitutes a well-defined PDF document, it is natural to describe why a
particular feature is to be included in the PDF file and what effect it is designed to have on PDF
processing software. So, although the primary objective of this document is to describe the content of
conforming PDF files, it also serves secondary purposes of defining exactly how a PDF component is
constructed, suggesting why a producer might choose to use the various PDF constructs, as well as
what behaviour is elicited from software consuming that PDF file. The choice of which specific set of
features a particular PDF processor supports is not specified.
PDF files represent electronic documents. Over time, it was natural to add features that take advantage
of PDF’s nature, and the power of computer viewing devices. The size of the PDF documentation has
more than quadrupled since its first introduction, and the number of features that a PDF processor is
expected to support has grown to be large.
0.3 Changes introduced in ISO 32000-2:2017
Starting with ISO 32000-2:2017 (PDF 2.0) the term "conforming reader" is no longer used. The terms
"interactive PDF processor", "PDF reader" and "PDF writer" are used instead, and have a conditional
conformance definition. See 6, "Conformance" for further discussion of this change.
This document includes many changes from ISO 32000-1:2008, however only significant new features
are marked as being new in PDF 2.0.
PDF 2.0 includes the following new features:
• 7.6.7, "Unencrypted wrapper document"
• 8.6.5.9, "Use of black point compensation";
• 12.5.6.24, "Projection annotations";
• 12.8.3.4, "CAdES signatures as used in PDF";
• 12.8.4, "Long term validation of signatures";
• 12.8.4.3, "Document Security Store (DSS)" and 12.8.5, "Document timestamp (DTS)
dictionary";

• 3D measurements;
• GoToDp action;
• RichMediaExecute action;
• Extension to GoTo and GoToR to support linking to a specific structure element;
• Extension to Signature Field Locks and Signature Seed Values;

• Ref (reference) structure element property;
• PageNum and Bates artifact types;
• New list types for structured lists;
• “Short” (short name) attribute for table header cells
• Extensions to OutputIntents (MixingHints and SpectralData).
The following clauses have been substantially rewritten for PDF 2.0:
• 7.4.7, "JBIG2Decode filter";
• 10.1 – 10.3, "Rendering";
• 11, "Transparency";
• 12.8, "Digital signatures";
• 14.3, "Metadata";
• 14.8, "Tagged PDF";
• 14.9, "Repurposing and accessibility support".
PDF 2.0 includes many important corrections, extensions and clarifications for existing features,
including:
• Corrections for many typing errors including bad symbols and truncated formulae.
• Updates and changes in normative references and the bibliography.
• Improved cross referencing for clauses, tables and figures within this document.
• Clarification for processing dashed and degenerate lines, clarification for processing text
objects and blending colour spaces within the transparency framework, clarifications and
enhancements for annotation appearances, stamp annotations extension and polyline
annotation enhancement.
• Strengthened encryption including introduction of elliptic curve cryptography, more control
over forms tab ordering, enforced viewer preferences, rich text, improvements to digital
signatures for long term signatures, 3D viewing improvements including 3D projections,
revised blend formulae for ColorBurn and ColorDodge, additional structure tags to improve
accessibility, requirement for metadata streams to be XMP and support for hyperlinks in rich
text.
• Clarification for PDF version numbering, resource inheritance, required and optional
signature dictionary SubFilter keys, artifacts, developer-defined extensions, word breaking
and page sizes, which file to show when first opening a collection, scope of header attributes,
precedence of CID font widths, when a CIDToGIDMap is used with Type 2 CID fonts,
deprecate sound and movie actions and annotations in favour of newer methods, rendering
intent and ImageMask, precedence of Type 1 encoding methods, the wording used to define
delimiters with respect to << and >>, Identity CMaps and CIDFonts, a special case when
closing and filling a path, that clipping follows filling rules and that operating on an undefined
path generates an error.
• Clarification and terminology improvements among Type 1, TrueType, CFF and OpenType
fonts; thumbnails for embedded files.
• Specification of XFA used for rich text in annotations.
• The rewrite of 14.8, "Tagged PDF" includes clarification of the parent/child relationships
between tags, simplifies and extends the standard tag set, and adds the use of namespaces for
custom tag sets (see also 14.7.4, "Namespaces" for new namespace functionality).
Some features present in earlier versions of PDF have been deprecated in PDF 2.0, including:
• XFA (incl. NeedsRendering);
• Movie, Sound and TrapNet annotations;
• Movie and Sound actions;
• Info dictionary;
• Assistive technology restrictions via DRM;
