FX-AF2 rules

Whether the PDF declares the invoice as an associated file at all. Get this wrong and a compliant reader never looks for the XML, however perfect the XML is.

FX-AF-01warningThe PDF catalog must reference the embedded invoice in its /AF (Associated Files) array.
FX-AF-02warningThe embedded invoice's /AFRelationship must be /Alternative.

…or paste the XML instead

Nothing is stored, and the whole invoice is checked, not just this rule. A PDF only works if it is Factur-X / ZUGFeRD — a PDF with the invoice XML inside it.
