This part of ISO 15930 specifies the use of the Portable Document Format (PDF) Version 1.6 for the
dissemination of digital data intended for print reproduction. When all elements necessary for final print
reproduction are contained within the file, it is designated as PDF/X-4. If a required ICC profile is externally
supplied and unambiguously identified, it is designated as PDF/X-4p.
