Development of PDF/E-2, which will be based on ISO 32000-1, is moving smartly, with a 2 month Committee Draft (CD) ballot to be issued in June. PDF/UA (Universal Accessibility) – ISO 14289 While PDF/UA-1 is in an FDIS ballot the document was not discussed in Mississauga. A Work Item was created for PDF/UA-2, with Microsoft's Cherie Ekholm confirmed as the Project Leader. Between May and September work will continue on PDF/UA-2 via an extension of the ad hoc committee created in Bellevue to study the need for PDF/UA-2
So, it was fascinating for me to watch the live coding session on creating PDF/A and PDF/UA documents hosted by Michaël Demey, iText’s Head of Research
The new platform requirements are real time creation of documents as PDF/A & UA, processing of mass documents >5.5 million documents in 5 hours as PDF/A & UA and in AFP format, SAP integration in workflows and support for processing complex business transactions with WYSIWYG front-end, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 integration with WYSIWYG front-end for individual customer communication
Working Group 9, PDF universal accessibility will meet for a day and a half to further their work on ISO/WD 14289-2, Document management applications – Electronic document file format enhancement for accessibility – Part 2: Use of ISO 32000-2 (PDF/UA-2). The PDF/UA working group will be discussing the comments received on the last ballot of the draft ISO/WD 14289-2

TAG to ISO Technical Committee (TC) 171, Subcommittee (SC) 2 , that focuses on the PDF file format, PDF subsets (including PDF/A and PDF/UA) and related file formats
We are working on a new version of PDF/UA which will include features that the industry is requesting now that the original version was published and is being used
On the (much) longer term we are working on PDF/UA-2. In addition to that, there are also side projects happening in the PDF Association
iText Research Manager Michaël Demey explained the importance of PDF/A and PDF/UA documents and how using these formats can future-proof your documents and ensure that everyone has access to them

Next time we’ll be looking at our “Mixologist at Work – Live Coding Session” tutorial, hosted by Michaël Demey, where he demonstrated the ease of creating PDF/A and PDF/UA compliant documents with iText 7 Core
