"Beyond this, however, lies a sizable ecosystem of less-visible open-source utilities, libraries, and SDKs which are used inside enterprises as part of PDF workflows and automated batch processing. Finding and updating these components, often buried deep inside third-party libraries, promises to be time consuming."
"If enterprises delay updating, then they risk encountering PDFs created using newer software supporting Brotli that will no longer open on their older, non-updated programs. IT teams will most likely come face to face with this when users contact them to report that they can't open a file."
""Somebody has to jump first and make some noise so other products jump on the bandwagon," he said."
A sizable ecosystem of less-visible open-source utilities, libraries, and SDKs is used inside enterprises as part of PDF workflows and automated batch processing. Finding and updating these components, often buried deep inside third-party libraries, is time-consuming and labor-intensive. If updates are delayed, PDFs created with newer software using Brotli compression may fail to open on older, unpatched programs. IT teams will encounter this problem when users report being unable to open files. Developer encouragement and visible early adoption are necessary to spur wider support; somebody must 'jump first and make some noise so other products jump on the bandwagon.'
