Switch 21 was released 3 years before Sequoia. Given how much Apple loves breaking core functionality, I strongly recommend you update Switch to a newer version if you update macOS.

Before investing in any hardware, I strongly recommend first making sure you use a colour-managed preview. Assuming you're printing in CMYK, even an incorrect proof setup will give you a better idea than looking at the RGB of your screen. In Adobe's Creative Suite applications, the preview can be to...

If your colour management settings are correct (be sure to check the profiles in Acrobat's preferences), the result should be mostly the same. I say mostly, because Acrobat sometimes has its own ideas about spot colour rendering. I suggest you double check that you're using all the same ICC profiles...

Unfortunately you will need PitStop Pro inside Acrobat to grab the content objects. The good news is that once you've done that, you can save the Action List and then use it inside Esko applications without further need for Acrobat or PitStop Pro.

When you say "media", do you mean the media box (as opposed to resizing actual page content)?
There is an action "Change media box", that should be what you need.
Note that per the PDF specification, the other page boxes can never go outside the media box.

I would still like to remove the Clipping Object. I know that it is being selected with my actions, however, it refuses removal. Your Action List looks like this: 1. Select objects without fill and stroke 2. Select clipping objects 3. Log selection 4. AND 5. Remove selection Step 3 will log the cur...

If the height is correct, but the width isn't, you'll get the width message, and vice versa. If both are incorrect, you'll get the long message. You can set all three to the same custom message, but unfortunately you're probably limited to using the variables from the one message that is picked at r...

PitStop Pro does not do automation; you will need PitStop Server. You don't need Switch really, but note that PitStop Server comes with a basic Switch license so you lose nothing by trying it out. In PitStop Server you create "hot folders". These are folders on disk that are monitored by P...

I'm glad you got it fixed - note however that the Enfocus "generic" profiles are, well, generic ;-) If possible, you should use a CMYK profile that matches your output device. But those can be hard to get and keep up to date, so you could also consider one of the industry standards like SW...

Do you or your company use "cyberfox"? According to their knowledge base, "technician mode" is a feature activated by pressing ctrl-alt-a, the default shortcut for the action list window. From their site: On a machine that has the AutoElevate Agent installed, Technician Mode (or ...

This is not a PitStop thing. Maybe it's Acrobat? Or even something else on your system?

Do you have a screenshot?

That is correct. Different programming and scripting languages sometimes interpret or define these terms differently, but your explanation is the most commonly used one - when the difference matters. async function add( x, y ) { return x + y } add( 3, 7 ) x and y are parameters, 3 and 7 are arguments.

This is an interesting case. The select action, for technical reasons, does need to _process_ all pages. And that can take time. Even if the objects are later deselected (e.g. with the AND operator), the initial selection still needs to happen. There is no way around that. Typically select actions a...

Yeah physical resolution is an optional tag in JPEG (and in many other image formats), so indeed not all files have it.

How about copying the objects using All, then pasting, and finally remapping to the separation you want? Unfortunately you can't do this in a loop with just PitStop, but using Switch that should be possible. Select spot color All Copy objects to clipboard All Select all Paste objects from clipboard ...
