Method Detail

createValidator

public static PDFAValidator createValidator(PDFAFlavour flavour,
                                            boolean logPassedChecks)

Creates a new PDFAValidator instance that uses one of the ValidationProfiles packaged as a core library resource. While these profiles are not guaranteed to be up to date, they are available when offline. A ProfileDirectory populated with the pre-loaded profiles can be obtained by calling Profiles.getVeraProfileDirectory().

Parameters:

flavour - the PDFAFlavour that's associated with the ValidationProfile to used to initialise the PDFAValidator.

logPassedChecks - boolean used to configure logging of passed tests by the PDFAValidator. Pass true to log passed tests, false to only log tests that don't pass.

Returns:

a PDFAValidator instance initialised from the passed parameters

Creates a new PDFAValidator instance that uses one of the ValidationProfiles packaged as a core library resource, see Validators#createValidator(PDFAFlavour, boolean).

Parameters:
