The ConversionOptions type exposes the following members.

Properties
 NameDescription
Public propertyConformance

The minimal target conformance

If a conformance is set, it is used as the minimal target conformance. The PDF/A version of the conformance must match the PDF/A version of the analysisOptions of Analyze(Document, AnalysisOptions). If the conformance level cannot be achieved, the conversion will abort with the error ConformanceException. If a higher conformance level can be achieved, it is used automatically.

If is used, the optimal conformance determined in the analysis (i.e. RecommendedConformance) is used. It is highly recommended to use .

Default value:

Public propertyCopyMetadata

Whether to copy metadata

Copy document information dictionary and XMP metadata. Default: .
Public propertyImageQuality

Image quality of recompressed images

The image quality for images that use a prohibited lossy compression type and must be recompressed. Supported values are 0.01 to 1.0. A higher value means better visual quality at the cost of a larger file size. Recommended values range from 0.7 to 0.9.

Example: JPX (JPEG2000) is not allowed in PDF/A-1. If a PDF contains a JPX compressed image, its compression type must be altered. Thus the image is converted to an image with JPEG compression using the image quality defined by this property. Default value: 0.8
