callas pdfToolbox Profiles
What is a pdfToolbox preflight Profile?
2019-07-09 (9:14)

When talking about preflight, preflight Profiles are the key concept to master.
A preflight Profile defines what you want to check during preflight and what you want to fix.
In pdfToolbox, preflight Profiles are organized in libraries and the software comes
with a long list of default preflight profiles to get you on your way.

A Fixup is the term used by pdfToolbox for corrections.
Each Fixup is capable of fixing a particular potential problem in a PDF file.

Preflight Checks
What is a Preflight Check and how do I create one?
2019-06-25 (6:04)

Often the best thing you can do is search for an existing preflight check

But sometimes it's quicker or necessary to create an entirely new Check.
So, how do we do that?

PDF documents to those standards, and if that's not possible

Adding varnish using pdfToolbox
2019-03-26 (5:11)

The "Shapes" technology in pdfToolbox was invented
to add additional color layers to a PDF document.
This allows for example adding a varnish everywhere in
the trim box, or only on colored objects in the PDF document.
The name of the spot color for the varnish, and its preview color,
can of course be customized.

Adding a cut path using pdfToolbox
2019-03-19 (5:02)

In label printing, for example, it is often necessary
that all PDF documents contain a valid die-line or cut path,
even if the labels are rectangular.
Using the "Shapes" technology in pdfToolbox,
it is trivial to correct files that don't have such a cut path.
Cut paths that are round, rounded rectangles or even irregular can be inserted as well!

Once you start creating your own Profiles, Checks, Fixups and so on,
you'll see that you need some organization or you're going to lose your way.
Libraries are perfect for that!
And you already know them as pdfToolbox ships with a bunch of default libraries.
But you can do a lot with them...
