Bonjour

Existe t il des variables standards ? Par ex la largeur et la hauteur (trimbox) pour effectuer un test d'homothétie ?

Merci pour votre réponse

Yes, when you go into the 'Define text with variables' - > Stats -> there are all types of default stats about the file such as Trim Height/Width. It uses Points as the unit of measure so you'll need to do a switch calculation to get it to metric/imperial

I can't do French but I can translate.. Hope this helps! I would suggest watching a few videos on Switch also.

Thanks a lot again

but i use only PitStop Pro..

Thanks anyway

I don't think this is currently available in PitStop Pro. There are some actions (in the Action List editor) that have a list of page boxes, so if you're lucky the action you need has that. If not, you'll either have to use something external to PitStop Pro to get the values, or you may even be out of luck completely.

If what you are looking for is a way to ensure that all pages in a document have the same size, you can use "Check pages have same size" from the Action list editor. You can use this several times in an action list to check media-, trim- bleed box etc.

If you want to check that the pages have a specific size, you can use "Check page size". In that case you can use variables to do a smart preflight. When running the action, you will be asked to type the width and height to check for. In the variables you can even define a list of values that will be presented in a dropdown menu.

Hello everyone

Thanks again for your comments

I was looking to perform a test to validate the homethetie between two sizes that's why i was looking some "standards variables" to use

I would have liked to extract the size of the page through know variable to valiate the homethetie

Thanks

Since you only have PitStop Pro I think the only way is to combine the two PDFs into one and then run the "Check pages have same size".

Actually Erik, you are having a very great idea yet the limit might be that both pages formats may differ but still be homothetical.
