Converts
an interactive PDF form to non-interactive PDF document or PDF/A document.
After this conversion, the PDF document can no longer be modified. Use
this operation to flatten digitally unsigned PDF documents for printing. When
you flatten a PDF document, it is no longer interactive.
For example, your application requires users to fill in a PDF
form. After they fill out the form, you want to archive it and make
sure it cannot be modified. Use the transformPDF operation to convert
the PDF form to a non-interactive form PDF document.
If you provide a flat PDF document as the input for this service,
an error is returned that the PDF is already flat. However, if the
input document contains both interactive and flat elements, the
transformPDF service converts the pages corresponding to the interactive
PDF without alerting about the flat PDF.
Hinweis:
When want to convert a PDF document to a PDF/A
document, use the
Convert to PDF/A operation
operation from the
DocConverter
service.
The toPDFA operation is fully compliant for converting a PDF document
containing a digital signature to a PDF/A document.

It also embeds all the fonts and turns off compression. If you select
this value, provide values for the PDF/A Revision Number and PDF/A
Conformance properties.
PDF/A Revision Number
