Conceptually, Action Lists happen first, in the order defined in the UI. In the Preflight Profile, fixes are done before checks.

There's quite a bit more to it than that, but that's the general idea.

VT is probably "Vertical Tab", an ancient character that is used very infrequently. Its ASCII code is 0xB (11). I don't know whether Switch regular expressions support it, but you could try searching for \xb or \x0b. Backslash x means "interpret the next part as a hexadecimal unicode ...

Could the "Select color range" action help you? There is a checkbox to search in converted values of other color spaces. So for example an RGB object could be (internally) converted to DeviceGray and then if the result is between 0% and 1% gray it would be considered black.

Layers in PDF are confusing if you think of them as layers. They are not layers as you would have in Photoshop for example. Photoshop layers are real layers: content that is above other content, hiding the underlying content or (with blend modes, transparency, etc.) interacting with it. In PDF, laye...

Hi Marc, It is impossible to officially support any OS before it is released. Apple does provide test builds before the release, but there are always changes in the final release, which makes it impossible to be 100% sure beforehand. And of course if any changes are needed for compatibility, this ha...

Nice video showing the problem, with that Enfocus support should certainly be able to tell you something.

Did you try closing and reopening the file between saves?

Hi, I'm not sure about the corrupt sessions or the very strange "Object is dead" error. I think you should contact Enfocus support about this. The part about visual compare of sessions not showing any differences is a known Acrobat bug I'm afraid. Adobe has confirmed it but were unable to ...

How are you setting up the Execute command, and which error are you getting?

You may need to fix the path to the script, or point Execute command to bash with the script as parameter (I think it's the -c option for bash).

Both those sound like good ideas, and certainly doable with Switch.

Good luck

I know this is not what you want to hear, but perhaps you should forget the idea of coupling the file's creation to the PDF's internal creation date. They are fundamentally different concepts. When you download the file to your machine you are effectively creating a new file - which just happens to ...

It is possible, but sadly not from within the Hot Folder Editor (this would be a nice feature!) In the menu, go to Window - Action Lists. This will bring up the Action List panel similar to PitStop Pro (the same shortcut even works in Pro and Server). Here you can create, edit, and manage your Actio...

If the length of the loop can be calculated: for ( var i = 0; i != length-1; ++i ) // length - 1 to skip the last line { text += line[i]; text += '\r'; } // now handle the last line, without \r: text += line[length-1]; If the length can't be calculated, you could instead have the first line be an ex...

Create an Action List like this: Select text segments Select color: CMYK with 100% for each component AND Log selection This will log all text objects with 100% C 100% M 100% Y 100% K. More generally you could also catch all text using multiple plates: Select text segments Check number of color plat...

In PitStop Server you specify the location of the report in the Hot Folder. This can be a UNC path. If you need more specific control (for example customer A's report should go somewhere else than customer B's report) you can use a Switch flow.

Hi, Text in PDF is a very complex matter. I won't bore you with the details, but here's a high level overview of what's going on: When you press for example the letter 'e' on your keyboard, PitStop checks the font to see which glyph should be shown on the page. Here, it goes through the Unicode mapp...
