Summary：Certain software or devices only support specific versions of PDF. Converting to lower versions (such as PDF 1.4 or 1.5) ensures that files can be opened on older systems or devices. Additionally, some institutions or platforms have restrictions on the PDF version submitted (such as academic journals, government agencies, printing houses, etc.) and may require the PDF version to be 1.4 or 1.7. Below is an introduction on how to batch convert a large number of PDFs into specific multiple versions of PDF format to enhance document compatibility and functionality support.
1、Usage Scenarios
There are hundreds or thousands of PDF files that need to be downgraded in version to be viewable on older systems or software, or when submitting these files to certain institutions or platforms that require specific PDF versions. These PDF files can be batch converted to multiple versions such as PDF 1.0/1.1/1.2/1.3/1.4/1.5/1.6/1.7/2.0.
