Starting with TeX Live 2010, the various formats that directly generate PDF
default to PDF 1.5. While this allows for more compact documents thanks to
objects compression, it can also lead to compatibility issues with some older
PDF viewers. This package changes back the version of generated PDF to 1.4 with
formats based on pdfTeX or LuaTeX in PDF mode, for documents that need to
achieve maximal compatibility with old viewers.

If you need to generate maximally compatible documents, you may also be
interested in the pdfx package.

Download the contents of this package in one zip archive (356.0k).

pdf14 – Restore PDF 1.4 to a live 2010 format

Starting with Live 2010, the various formats, that directly generate PDF, default to generating PDF 1.5. This is generally a good thing, but it can lead to compatibility issues with some older PDF viewers. This package changes the version of PDF generated with formats (based on pdf or Lua in PDF mode), back to 1.4 for documents that need to achieve maximal compatibility with old viewers.
