Friends,
I apologize for the cross-posting.
PDF/UA is now a US National Standard in addition to an ISO specification. This new US edition is available directly from AIIM for $15. AIIM Professional members may download it for free.

The document's no more readable than before (it's the same highly technical content as the ISO original)⦠but it is much cheaper!
All the best,
