About veraPDF
veraPDF (http://verapdf.org/) was originally funded by the PREFORMA project
(http://www.preforma-project.eu/). PREFORMA (PREservation FORMAts for
culture information/e-archives) was a Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP)
project co-funded by the European Commission under its FP7-ICT Programme.
The project’s main aim was to address the challenge of implementing
standardised file formats for preserving digital objects in the long term,
giving memory institutions full control over the acceptance and management
of preservation files into digital repositories. veraPDF is now maintained
by the Open Preservation Foundation.
