[EP-tech] Re: Check uploaded document for PDF/A compatibility


Hi,

I would like to have it checked directly after the upload - so we can inform the user, that we need valid PDF/A and point him to an FAQ with the right howto.

Since there will be a huge number of uploads, this needs to be fully automated and, as mentioned, instantly after the upload stage.

So where should I best place the call for the PDF/A validation script to have it run directly after document upload?

Thanks again

You could also define a new issue and have it run by the issues infrastructure.
