Problem

Teams need to know whether a PDF is standards-ready, suspicious, malformed, or safe to archive before they mutate it.

Use

Run read-only inspections and standards checks that return findings, verdicts, and exportable evidence.

Evidence plan

What this unlocks

  • Audit and gate high-risk codecs/object streams
  • Inspect without modifying the source document
  • Best package access keeps the path explicit

Common use cases

  • Detect risky or unsupported codecs
  • Prepare files for controlled environments
  • Gate archival or print workflows

Workflow steps

  1. 1Choose the codec policy
  2. 2Scan the document
  3. 3Review violations and route remediation

Outputs

  • Findings report
  • Risk or standards verdict
  • Evidence bundle

Review checks

  • Group findings by severity
  • Route failures into remediation tools
  • Attach reports to audit or review records

API

Endpoint family: /v1/forensics, /v1/preflight, /v1/reports
POST/v1/documents/uploadPOST/v1/ocr/{document_id}GET/v1/jobs/{job_id}/downloadGET/v1/forensics/{document_id}/standards-preflightPOST/v1/forensics/{document_id}GET/v1/forensics/{document_id}/evidence-bundle
  • Forensics and validation tools typically return reports and findings instead of mutating source files.
  • Use /v1/forensics and related report endpoints for headless evidence collection.
