Embedding an Audit Trail

The ability to embed an audit trail in a PDF is based on the Ghent

Working Group Standard for preflight tracking. You must run a full

preflight profile (not a single check or fixup) in order to embed an audit

trail. To embed a description of the preflight profile used, as well as a

digital signature, choose Embed Audit Trail from the Preflight panel.

This provides a method for checking the document at later stages of the

workflow, to ensure that nothing has been altered after the preflight.

Preight Audit Trail

Embed an Audit Trail in a preighted PDF to help keep track of the preight results and the

prole used. e Audit Trail feature will also reect whether the PDF has been altered since

the audit trail was embedded.

PDF Fixups

When Fixups are included in a Preflight profile, Acrobat will

automatically repair specified problems that the preflight process finds.

Keep in mind that not all problems can be fixed in Acrobat. For

example, image content of insufficient resolution can be pinpointed

with Preflight, but there’s no way to rectify such an issue within Acrobat.

As with many problems in a PDF file, the origin of the issue lies much

further upstream in the lifecycle of the job. Obviously, it would be

necessary to locate a high-resolution image, replace the low-resolution

content in the original application, and generate a new PDF.

A profile may contain a preflight check, a fixup, or both. To identify

what components a profile contains, examine the icons to the left of the

entry in the Preflight profile dialog box:

•Preight proles which contain only checks will display a highlighted

magnifying glass ( ) to the le of the name.

•Fixups display a highlighted wrench ( ) to the le of the name.

•Proles that combine checks along with xups will show both the

magnifying glass and wrench highlighted ( ).

Single Checks and Fixups

Acrobat X Pro includes Single Checks and Single Fixups to streamline

the finding and fixing of common problems, such as image resolution.

Single Checks and Single Fixups can be run independently without

needing to be incorporated into a Profile. Acrobat X Pro includes an

extensive list of Single Checks, including checks for ink coverage,

transparency, font embedding, text using rich black, black objects set to

knock out, objects using Registration color, images below a threshold

resolution, and many more. Single Fixups include convert Registration

color to black, merge spot colors with different names, embed fonts,

assign object types to layers for troubleshooting, and much more. You

can also create your own Single Checks and Single Fixups.

To create a single check:

1. In the Proles panel of the Preight dialog box, click the Select

Single Checks buon.

2. Choose Options > Create New Preight Check.

3. On the right side of the dialog box, select a group, select a property

for the group, and then click Add. e new single check appears in

the group appropriate to its group and property.

To create a single fixup:

1. In the Proles panel of the Preight dialog box, click the Select

Single Fixups buon.

2. Choose Options > Create New Preight Fixup.

3. Name the xup and specify the criteria. e new xup appears in

the group appropriate to its category and type.
