Well I will try it and report back. I use TeX a lot but usually not pdfLaTeX.
I just linked to the head of the discussion, the fact it's on a TeX mailing list is just a coincidence. The suggested command that
looked
good was:
ps2pdf13 -dEmbedAllFonts -dPDFX=true in.pdf out.pdf
Ghostview (the command behind ps2pdf13) has lots of options
to control
it, you may need to specify some more options than the above
though. It
can definitely be told to generate CMYK colors as I've done this
before,
just never tried to go all the way through to the spec you want.
When you figure it out, sending the commands here would help
anybody in
the future accomplish the same!
I have inquired on the Ghostscript list and that program wil not create a file in the PDF/X1-a:2001 format. The LaTeX style pdfx.sty (latest version) will but the use of this program to convert a file not created in LaTeX would be very clumsy.
