All Implemented Interfaces:

IValidationChecker

Direct Known Subclasses:

PdfA1Checker
```
public abstract class PdfAChecker
extends Object
implements IValidationChecker
```
An abstract class that will run through all necessary checks defined in the different PDF/A standards and levels. A number of common checks are executed in this class, while standard-dependent specifications are implemented in the available subclasses. The standard that is followed is the series of ISO 19005 specifications, currently generations 1 through 3. The ZUGFeRD standard is derived from ISO 19005-3. While it is possible to subclass this method and implement its abstract methods in client code, this is not encouraged and will have little effect. It is not possible to plug custom implementations into iText, because iText should always refuse to create non-compliant PDF/A, which would be possible with client code implementations. Any future generations of the PDF/A standard and its derivates will get their own implementation in the iText - pdfa project.
