Additional PDF format settings for converted PDF documents

Additional PDF format settings are added to the PDF format under Output Settings in PDF Crawler and Engine configuration:

  • PDF: Standard PDF format for generic usage
  • PDF/A (Archival): A PDF format that is used for long-term storage
  • PDF/UA (Universal Accessibility): A PDF format that ensures accessibility for people with disabilities who use assistive technology to navigate and read electronic content. Currently PDF/UA format is supported for PDF and Word documents only. See Working with PDF/UA documents for more information.
    Note: In case of a failed PDF/UA rendition, the document will be reverted to the standard PDF version.

See PDF Crawler and Engine configuration.

International postcode improvements

WorkZone now supports creation of multiple post districts with the same postcode in a country.

Previously, postcodes had to be unique for a country. For example, you can now register German postcodes as follows:

Country code Postcode District

DE

53547

Kasbach-Ohlenberg

DE

53547

Breitscheid
