PDF / A is an ISO standardized version of the Portable Document Format (PDF) that specializes in archiving and long-term preservation of digital documents. PDF / A differs from the standard PDF format by prohibiting features unsuitable for long-term archiving, such as font binding (as opposed to font embedding) and encryption.
The main advantage of this format is that PDF / A format files are accurate to the original documents: the fonts, images, graphic objects and formatting of the source file are preserved, regardless of the application and the platform used to create it.

« Mamadou est venu nous aider à réorganiser notre panneau d’arrêt via un outil de rapport, Crystal Reports. Mamadou a réussi avec succès le travail de précision, au pixel près, puisque nous voulions un rapport similaire au design graphique original. Il nous a aidés à découper le projet par cycle et à intégrer le rapport à notre logiciel corporatif. La qualité que nous avons appréciée était le souci du détail et la constance. Mamadou a été très professionnel et connaît plusieurs autres technologies. Merci. »

“Mamadou helped us reorganize our stop panel using a reporting tool, Crystal Reports. He successfully delivered precise, pixel-perfect work, as we needed a report that matched the original graphic design. He helped us break the project down into cycles and integrate the report into our corporate software. What we appreciated most was his attention to detail and consistency. Mamadou was very professional and is knowledgeable in many other technologies. Thank you.”
