XJDF 2.0 Errata

Owned by Rainer Prosi
Last updated: Aug 05, 2021 by Michel HartmannVersion comment

This page provides a page by summary of all errata that unfortunately made it into XJDF 2.0.

A copy of the XJDF 2.0 specification showing the location of these errata as pdf comment annotations can be found here XJDF Specification 2.0-Final-Errata.pdf.

Note: To properly view the annotations, this pdf should be viewed in Acrobat Reader rather than a web browser.

Only issues that affect interoperability will be updated here. Minor typos and similar issues will be tracked in JIRA for the next version but will not be tracked here.

If you have found an Error in the XJDF Specification, please don't hesitate to create a new Bug-Ticket in the JDF Project here: https://jira.cip4.org/projects/JDF.

How to use this errata.

  1. The order of the errata duplicates the order of the XJDF 2.0 specification.
  2. Chapter headings are included for convenience only (to allow for an entry in the Table of Contents on this page).
  3. Each errata item is bounded by horizontal rule lines.
  4. If an errata affects multiple pages then it will be ordered by the first page it affects and all the revisions for the errata will be kept together in a single section.
  5. Each errata item is comprised of left and right columns where
    1. The left column contains the details, explanation, location and JIRA reference.
    2. The right column contains the revised content.

  6. Each errata will have a link to the JIRA entry that describes the issue in detail.


JIRA status value

The JIRA link is 'live'! It contains the current status of the issue.
If this entry has a value of IMPLEMENTED then it is complete and will be incorporated into the next version of the specification.
All other values, such as TSC VERIFY or SPECIFICATION mean that the entry is still in the process of being constructed and MAY change before being finally implemented.


Revised content format

The revised content is NOT formatted in the same manner as the specification due to editing restrictions of this wiki.

Revised content instructions

Text written in Bold Blue Underlined in the revised content column is for information and clarification only - it does NOT form part of the new/revised content.

Location page numbering

Page numbers refer to the printed page number in XJDF. Add 20 to the printed page number in order to navigate to an indexed page, e.g. in Acrobat.

Appendix D Media Size

D.4 International B Paper Sizes

Table D.4 International B Paper Sizes

Page 380

The Japanese and International B paper sizes were both mapped to the Japanese B paper sizes, and a single set of NMTOKEN values used, i.e. 'B0'-'B10'.

This section has been amended to contain more clarification text. The original single table has been replaced by two tables, one for each of the International and Japanese B paper sizes.

New NMTOKEN values introduced

The original NMTOKEN values of 'B0' to 'B10' have been completely replaced by these two new tables.

See: JDF-435 - Getting issue details... STATUS


The section 'D4 International B Paper Sizes' now reads...

D.4 International and Japanese B Paper Sizes

These sizes are defined by ISO standards, including [ISO216:2007] and by JIS standards [JIS P0138].

Note: Equivalent International and Japanese B paper sizes, i.e. ISOB0/JISB0, ISOB1/JISB1 etc, differ in area and size. To illustrate this point the ISOB0 sheet has an area of √2m2 whereas the JISB0 sheet has an area of 1.5m2. The aspect ratio of both is identical.

Implementations SHOULD NOT calculate values and SHOULD use the values from the respective tables below.
