Selecting pdf version

Selecting pdf version

[Jean-Philippe Rey]

Dear all,

I am looking for a way to choose the pdf version generated by ConTeXt. On my system, ConTeXt produces pdf 1.5 files, but my printshop doesn't like them and asks for pdf 1.4 files. Is there a way to tell ConTeXt to produce pdf 1.4 files ?

Thanks,

I'm pretty sure that this doesn't actually disable extra features, just
writes a different minor version. So PDFs might still break in printshop.

Thank you very much.

> -- or change printshop

I am using the university printshop.  I asked them to upgrade their system.  They answered that it was too costly whereas pdf versions 1.5 and further add only interactive features and don't bring any improvement for printing documents.

Thanks again,

1.5 also adds support for layers (optional content), which allow the
exchange of text for different languages by placing them on separate
layers ("schwarzfilmtausch").
