Half-joking—-Does the standard explain why some documents I open in Acrobat Reader ask me if I want to save, when I only opened the file (and made no intentional edits)??
- planede 4y agoPDF includes javascript as an extension, although I don't know if javascript actions can be triggered without user input or not. Also many PDF viewers have little to no support to javascript in PDF.
- layer8 4y agoThis can happen for PDFs that are broken in some way and that Acrobat auto-repairs, and thus regards as modified. And no, the standard doesn’t concern itself with that particular behavior. Also, many PDFs “in the wild” do not fully conform to the standard, because Acrobat Reader is so lenient.
