The work of TC171 contributes to the portability, retrievability, compatibility, interchangeability, and sustainability between document management systems across global operations. Our work ensures that organizations have the best policies and practices in place to protect their information and to meet legal requirements while making information accessible to those that need it. 

We accomplish that with our projects that deal with:

  • Controlled sharing of digital documents
  • Electronically stored information recommendations for trustworthiness and reliability
  • Selection of digital storage media for long-term storage
  • Long-term preservation of electronic document-based information
  •  Minimum requirements for the storage of information
  • Portable document file format (PDF) specifications
  • Accessible PDF
  • Extensible metadata platform (XMP)
  • PDF Archive (PDF/A)
  • AFP interchange for PDF
  • Electronic content/document management interchange
  • Raster image transport and storage
  • XML Forms Data Format
  • ECMAScript for PDF
  • Analysis, selection, and implementation of enterprise content management (ECM) systems
