[jira] [Updated] (PDFBOX-1454) false reject of Pdf A1b?

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1454?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Eric Leleu updated PDFBOX-1454:
-------------------------------

    Component/s: XmpBox

Hi,

The OpenOffice pdf is considered as a valid PDF/A-1b.

For the file  "Pdf_A_Test.pdf", the problem comes from the XmpBox module that rejects an empty RDF:Description element.

According to the XMP specification : "The element content of top-level rdf:Description elements shall consist of only zero or more XML elements for XMP properties. XMP properties may be arbitrarily apportioned among the rdf:Description elements."

So, it is a false reject.

The fix seems to be easy but I need more time to check if there are no side effects.

BR,
Eric
