415 | //! Writes a quarter's meter readings claiming the third part of the archival
//! standard, at level U.
//!
//! The third part is the one that lets a record carry a file of any kind inside
//! it, and level U adds that every mark of ink says which letter it stands for.
//! A person opens the record and reads the page; a billing system opens the
//! same file and reads the table.
//!
//! Whether the result really is PDF/A-3U is not for us to say. `veraPDF` says,
//! and `scripts/check_archival.sh` asks it.
//!
//! The words of the page and of its metadata are held in `Words`, once per
//! language, and `HQF_PDF_LANG` picks which set the record is written in.
//!
//! Usage: `cargo run --example write_pdfa3u -- tmp/pdfa3u.pdf [font.ttf]`
//! `HQF_PDF_LANG=fr cargo run --example write_pdfa3u -- tmp/pdfa3u_fr.pdf`
