Re: Lab colors in pitstop server
That is indeed a feature request. What is your use case for requiring a Lab patch? Eventually it always gets rendered as RGB on screen or CMYK in print. How many different colors are we talking about? If the number is limited, you could work with a preflight profile with a number of action lists, ea...

Re: How to stop a flow if file does not exist
Do you really want to stop the flow? If you do it will have to get started again one way or another, and how are you going to do that? I think you would be better off with the "Wait for asset" app. As the name suggests jobs will be held in the flow if a file is missing and when the file al...

Re: How do I verify that PDFs sent to HP DFE hot folder got to the DFE.
Chad's comment about the safe move option is certainly valid and it may very well be the reason some files were lost. About the metering, the way to do that is to add a "Hold job" element, to set the "Folder constraint" property on the outgoing connection to "Yes" and t...

Re: Issue with processing files
I suggest you use job priorities. They can be set on input and intermediate folders. Set the priority before PitStop Server to 1 and after PitStop Server to 2. In that way the jobs in front of "Execute command" will have a higher priority than the ones waiting in front of PitStop Server.

Re: False Positives on Transparency Preflights
1. In Acrobat, which Object Browser and Inspector are we talking about? I wrongly assumed it was obvious I was referring to PitStop Pro. 2.

Re: False Positives on Transparency Preflights
It was what I expected: the file contains forms that are transparency groups. Forms (not the interactive kind with fields and checkboxes, etc.) are a way of grouping objects, and the special thing is that these forms have properties themselves independent of the properties of the objects inside the ...

Re: How to duplicate layers in PitStop Server?
Good question. It is VERY important to realize that an action only does something if the selected objects are meaningful for that action. Select images Outline text It is easy to understand that this does not do anything. If you do Select images Copy Paste that does not do anything either, because y...

Re: Debugging Strangeness
The fact that there is an outMain.js means that Switch has had to do some processing on the file to make it work in a CommonJS environment. Does your script use ES Modules? Are you debugging a script folder or a packed script? Adding breakpoints to the outMain.js should work, or doesn't it? It is no...

Re: How to duplicate layers in PitStop Server?
You need a second version of the file contents that can be modified and afterwards discarded. Here is a strategy to do that. Select all Copy Select all //this one is important before pasting Paste Select last added objects Assign objects to layer with name, e.g. TEMP //Now you have a copy in a separ...

Re: Version of node.js supported by Swtich v25.11
Switch uses its own NodeJS version when running scripts and apps, so there is nothing you need to do. There is a caveat if you write your own Switch scripts. It is not uncommon that script writers build test versions of parts of the code of a Switch script and that they run these tests outside of th...
