Dear list,

I have this minimal sample:

    \setupbackend
      [format=PDF/A-3a,
       intent=sRGB IEC61966-2.1,
       profile={sRGB.icc,default_gray.icc},
       level=0]

    \setuptagging[state=start]

    \setupcolors[cmyk=no]

    \startTEXpage[offset=1em]
    \externalfigure[transparent]
    \stopTEXpage
    \stoptext

The external figure is available from
http://pdf.ousia.tk/transparent.pdf (and output file at
http://pdf.ousia.tk/transparent-pdf-a-3a.pdf).

Using veraPDF (http://verapdf.org/), the output document doesn’t comply
with the validation profile requirements.

As Luigi wisely predicted, external images may be problematic.

I get one error, because of the color of the external figure:
https://github.com/veraPDF/veraPDF-validation-profiles/wiki/PDFA-Parts-2-and-3-rules#rule-6243-2.

The PDF object in question is the following:

    12 0 obj
    <<
      /Type /XObject
      /Subtype /Form
      /FormType 1
      /BBox [ 0 0 316.896 215.5669 ]
      /Group <<
        /Type /Group
        /S /Transparency
        /I true
        /CS /DeviceRGB
      >>
      /Resources 21 0 R
      /Length 71
    >>
    stream
    q
    0.188235 0.392157 0 rg /a0 gs
    28.348 187.219 260.203 -158.871 re f
    Q
    endstream
    endobj

Well, this is a minimal sample, but my real document is much bigger. Is
there any way to convert the stream to something that ConTeXt can handle
directly?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
