    PDF: Verify PDF document
    In This Topic
    The SDK allows to verify that PDF document conforms the following PDF specifications:

    Here is an example that demonstrates how to verify a PDF document to conformance with PDF/A-1b specification:
    /// <summary>
    /// Verifies a PDF document to conformance with PDF/A-1b specification.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="pdfFilename">The filename of PDF document.</param>
    public static void VerifyDocumentToPdfA1b(string pdfFilename)
    {
        Vintasoft.Imaging.Pdf.Processing.PdfA.PdfA1bVerifier verifier = 
            new Vintasoft.Imaging.Pdf.Processing.PdfA.PdfA1bVerifier();
        System.Console.WriteLine("Verification...");
        if (verifier.Verify(pdfFilename))
            System.Console.WriteLine("Document conforms to PDF/A-1b.");
        else
            System.Console.WriteLine("Document does not conform to PDF/A-1b.");
    }
    
    ''' <summary>
    ''' Verifies a PDF document to conformance with PDF/A-1b specification.
    ''' </summary>
    ''' <param name="pdfFilename">The filename of PDF document.</param>
    Public Shared Sub VerifyDocumentToPdfA1b(pdfFilename As String)
        Dim verifier As New Vintasoft.Imaging.Pdf.Processing.PdfA.PdfA1bVerifier()
        System.Console.WriteLine("Verification...")
        If verifier.Verify(pdfFilename) Then
            System.Console.WriteLine("Document conforms to PDF/A-1b.")
        Else
            System.Console.WriteLine("Document does not conform to PDF/A-1b.")
        End If
    End Sub
