Hi,

I'm trying to create PDF/A files using PDFBox 2.0.12. My code is based on the 
example code from the PDFBox repo. It creates the PDF file and I can verify XMP 
data is in it containing my parameters. But tools like veraPDF and pdfPilot say 
it's invalid (no PDF/A info, no metadata).

So I converted the file using pdfPilot. I extracted the xpacket XML part from 
the resulting PDF file. And I added this data directly without using PDFBox 
API. And the resulting PDF is valid to both apps.

So I think the way PDFBox writes XMP data to PDF files, it gets invalid. Can 
someone confirm that or is there something wrong in the way I do it?

I also wrote a question on stackoverflow with further infos on this:
