HP Designjet Scanners - Modifying the generated PDF/A files

The HP Designjet large format scanners generate PDF/A documents. These type of documents cannot be modified by default. This is not configurable by the scanner’s software; however, some customers would like to have the ability to generate normal modifiable PDF files. This can be done through an option in Adobe Acrobat. Follow the procedure below to configure the Acrobat software to generate normal PDF files:

1. Open Acrobat Preferences.
2. Go to the Documents category.
3. Set View documents in PDF/A mode to Never.
