Full title and description

Information technology — International Standardized Profiles ADFnn — Document Filing and Retrieval (DFR) — Part 4: ADF12 — Common Filing and Retrieval — Archiving Profile. This part defines the ADF12 “Archiving Profile” for Document Filing and Retrieval, describing the required support and behaviour for archiving capabilities of common filing and retrieval application functions between a DFR user and a DFR server.

Abstract

ISO/IEC ISP 12069-4:1999 specifies the archiving profile (ADF12) within the International Standardized Profiles series for Document Filing and Retrieval (DFR). It provides a concise specification of the filing, indexing, retrieval and archival interactions expected between a client (DFR user) and a DFR server, intended to promote interoperability of document archive and retrieval implementations. The published edition is a short technical profile intended for implementers of DFR access protocol.

Scope

This standard defines the Archiving Profile (ADF12) within the ISO/IEC ISP 12069 series for Document Filing and Retrieval. It specifies the behaviour and message/operation support required to implement archiving-related filing and retrieval functions between a DFR user and a DFR server using the DFR access protocol, including the archival aspects of indexing, storage and retrieval necessary for long-term document management and interoperability. The standard’s scope is focused on the profile-level specification (interoperability/profile constraints) rather than low-level protocol bindings.

Key topics and requirements

• Definition of the ADF12 Archiving Profile for Document Filing and Retrieval implementations.
• Required filing, indexing and retrieval operations and expected behaviours for archiving use-cases.
• Interoperability constraints and profile-level rules to ensure consistent archiving between DFR clients and servers.
• Specification of archival-related metadata, document store handling and retrieval semantics as applicable to the ADF12 profile.
• Mapping to the broader ADFnn profile framework (series-level alignment).

Typical use and users

Primary users include implementers of document management and archiving systems, DFR (Document Filing and Retrieval) client and server developers, system integrators working on interoperability of electronic archives, and standards/library/information professionals responsible for long-term document storage and retrieval interfaces. Organizations evaluating legacy DFR profile implementations or migrating archival systems may consult this profile for historical compatibility guidance.

Related standards

ISO/IEC ISP 12069-4:1999 is one part of the ISO/IEC ISP 12069 series (ADFnn) addressing Document Filing and Retrieval. Other related parts in the series include (examples): Part 5 — ADF13 (Document Store Manipulation Profile), Part 7 — ADF22 (Remote Store Management — Full Management Profile), and additional ADFxx parts addressing store management and manipulation. Many parts of the 12069 series were published around 1999 and several have subsequently been withdrawn.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO/IEC ISP 12069-4:1999 is the Archiving Profile (ADF12) within the ISO/IEC ISP 12069 series for Document Filing and Retrieval; it specifies profile-level requirements for archival filing and retrieval interactions between a DFR user and DFR server.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers the archiving-related filing, indexing, storage and retrieval behaviours and interoperability constraints required of implementations claiming conformance to the ADF12 profile. The document is a profile specification (profile constraints and required behaviours), not a detailed protocol tutorial.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Implementers of document management and archival systems, DFR client and server developers, system integrators, and information/archive professionals concerned with interoperable document archiving interfaces.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The standard was published in 1999 (Edition 1) and is listed as Withdrawn/Annulled in the ISO life-cycle; it is not an active/current ISO standard for new work. For status and any successor documents consult your national standards body or ISO.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — it is part of the ISO/IEC ISP 12069 (ADFnn) series addressing Document Filing and Retrieval; related parts include ADF13 (Part 5), ADF22 (Part 7) and others that define different DFR profiles. Many parts in the series were published in 1999.

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Key keywords are: Document Filing and Retrieval (DFR), Archiving Profile, ADF12, document storage, indexing, retrieval, interoperability, archival metadata.
