This version of the specification (2.1) is intended to allow OVF 1.x tools to work with OVF 2.x descriptors in the following sense:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Existing OVF 1.x tools should be able to parse OVF 2.x descriptors.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Existing OVF 1.x tools should be able to give warnings\/errors if dependencies to 2.x features are required for correct operation.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If a conflict arises between the schema, text, or tables, the order of precedence to resolve the conflicts is schema; then text; then tables. Figures are for illustrative purposes only and are not a normative part of the standard.<\/p>\n<p>A table may constrain the text but it shall not conflict with it.<\/p>\n<p>The profile conforms to the cited CIM Schema classes where used. Any requirements contained in the cited CIM Schema classes shall be met. If a conflict arises the CIM Schema takes precedence.<\/p>\n<p>The profile conforms to the cited OVF XML Schema. It may constrain the schema but it shall not conflict with it. If a conflict arises the OVF XML Schema takes precedence.<\/p>\n<h4>PDF Catalog<\/h4>\n<table border=\"1px\" class=\"des-table\">\n<tr>\n<th>PDF Pages<\/th>\n<th>PDF
