From my Delphi application I require to create a PDF document that is PDF/X-3:2002 compliant.

This is a strict requirement of the client as the PDF files are going to be printed in a printing press.

I have wPDF but it does not support. (Please see: http://wpcubed.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5693)

If no component currently exists, then what techniques and other software can I use to accomplish this? The application allows the user to add images and rich-text onto templates (TPanels) that should make up the pages of the PDF.

    How do you manage your color?

    If you use RGB Colors in your Delphi application to handle the image, PDF/X-3:2002 won’t be just a matter of tagging.

    The PdfLib do handle this format, and can be used in Delphi.

    I guess that default PDF/A-1 settings will meet most of the PDF/X-3 requirements, especially:

    • Embed fonts;
    • Include color profile;
    • Contain metadata.

    Our Open Source engine is able to produce PDF/A-1 files – if you take a look at the specs, you may be able to generate PDF/X-3:2002 compliant PDF files.
