Are there really presentation programs so lame that they can't export PDFs?
Yes, many - but if you're running windows, there is always cutepdf which
acts as a printer driver and you can use it to export pdf from anything.
Or if you use a mac, you can export to pdf from anything from the base o/s.
If linux / free unix, the de-facto presentation system is OOo, which
supports pdf export natively.
This doesn't address strict pdf/a 1.4 compatibility, but this is a more
subtle problem which the ietf cannot realistically expect its presentation
submitters to handle in a consistent manner.
If so, loop back to the beginning of this dicussion in which people
refuse to update decade old software.
Apparently, it is considered unhelpful to suggest that people keep within
5y of what's widely supported at any particular time.
