Re: Why the normative form of IETF Standards is ASCII

[3] Here is an example of PDF-A that uses nothing but ASCII characters:
http://www.ewellic.org/ascii-only.pdf

I've replaced this with another PDF file created by a program (Acrobat Distiller 6.0.1) whose name, as displayed in the Properties dialog, doesn't include a non-ASCII symbol.

Of course my old version of Distiller doesn't support PDF/A, as I'm sure newer versions do, but you should get the idea: allowing RFCs to contain non-ASCII does not imply changing the format from plain text, and vice versa.
