Hi,
can Pitstop Pro flatten the content of a pdf (images, objects and text) into a 300 DPI image inside it?
Is it possible ?
Thanks.
Flattening of pdf content
Re: Flattening of pdf content
Yes, it is possible since PitStop 2019.
We call this "Rasterize selection", because flattening refers to transparency flattening.
Here is a movie about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJ4_0ffLUGM

If you just want to convert all the page content to an image you can also try the Action 'Replace page content by bitmap'

Thank you, both solutions work.
However, after applying the Pitstop action, the image is slightly blander than the original.
Is this a profile problem in the color management in your opinion ?

It's difficult to see from the screenshot, what's the input/output colorspace?

ahh ok
Is it always the same type of input/output profile?
At the moment you have ISO Coated v2 as the input and output profile in the color management options.
Using a devicelink profile before converting to an image might also be worth a try to see the result.
