KF-PDF-SORTIE: The output intent is missing

This code shows up when an electronic invoice is validated. Here is what it means, why it fires, and what to change in the file.

Why this code appears

The document carries no OutputIntent: the output colour profile. PDF/A requires it so that colours are reproducible without depending on the screen or the printer.

How to fix it

Add an output intent to the document (sRGB is fine for an invoice). It is a checkbox in most PDF/A exports.

Where it happens

This check is ours, not a code from the standard: we do not cover enough of EN 16931 to borrow its numbers, and a misattributed official code would send you to fix the wrong field. It concerns PDF.
