PDF/A-1b (RGB)
Check this option if you want to have the resulted PDF file compliant with the ISO standard PDF/
A-1b for the RGB colorspace.
PDF/A is a PDF file format used for long-term archiving of documents in electronic format. It uses
PDF Reference 1.4 (implemented in Adobe Acrobat 5) and complies with the ISO Standard - ISO
19005-1:2005.
When the PDF/A -1b (RGB) option is checked, several options will be set as default ones to
ensure the compatibility: the Fonts will be Always embedded, the file links option will be
unchecked (if checked previously) and all Security settings will be disabled.
Profile settings override paper settings from printing applications
Some settings regarding page size, page orientation and resolution (see Page settings topic) can
be selected also from the printing dialogs of the application you are printing from. If you open the
novaPDF Printing Preferences property sheet from the printing application, you will see the same
settings automatically selected here too. But you can change them, and the changes will be taken
in account when printing.
If you do not want this behavior, and you prefer to make page size selection only in novaPDF
Printing Preferences property sheet, and you also want the settings you make to be remembered
and used on the next printing jobs, you should check the Profile Settings Override Paper
Settings From Printing Applications check box.

can be done before saving the pdf file (such as ignoring empty pages).
