This example exports PDF using PDF/A-1a standard, and saves the data to a file called custom.pdf:

int li_ret
dw_1.Object.DataWindow.Export.PDF.Method = NativePDF!
dw_1.Object.DataWindow.Export.PDF.NativePDF.PDFStandard = '1' //PDF/A-1a
li_ret = dw_1.SaveAs("c:\custom.pdf",PDF!, true)

This example uses Modify to set the PDF print properties:

dw1.Modify("DataWindow.Export.PDF.Method = NativePDF!")
dw1.Modify("DataWindow.Export.PDF.NativePDF.PDFStandard = '1'")
