I might be mistaken, but can't you do this with a quickrun? Bert

Hi, Have you checked the color ColorProof with pitstop inspector? The color might have converted to cmyk when exported to pdf. Bert

Shaji, that's a lot of steps for troubleshooting... :) What's the reason you save it to PDF/A once you have done the OCR? What happens if you preflight your document with Acrobat Pro preflight options? I believe here you can preflight for PDF/A as well. Also which version of PitStop are you...

On the top of my head I would look for clipping paths or form objects. Which version of PitStop Server are you on? Instead of using the 'remove printer marks' action list, you can create your own action list that will remove only specific objects, in this case the individual marks. cheers, Bert

Shaji, Seems file corruption to me. Are these recently created or old files? Were they stored on a Windows file server and copy by a Mac? It could be that the file's resource has been messed up. Have you tried doing a save as in Acrobat on one of these files and see if that helps? cheers, Bert

May i ask why you wouldn't use the new remap channel action in your use case? Cheers, Bert

Steve, I understand that you initially upgraded from version 7.x to version 10. Afterwards you de-installed and re-installed other versions on top of it. It could be related to the Certified PDF status or the preset databases or to a specific user setting... Did you, or were you asked at any...

Matt, hard cropping of images is no longer an issue in pitstop 10. Hard cropping vector element is indeed a valid and useful feature request. Bert

Stephen, Pitstop has a similar action as part of the action list, but be careful removing form data especially with print related files. You could unknowingly remove sensitive content. I would do a manual check to see what's part of the form object. It is true that some form Xobjects have no...

Hi, the trigger is the existence of form objects in your resulting pdf file. A form object can be compared with a container holding one or multiple objects. Are you grouping elements in illustrator, or using shadings, drop shadows? That could be a trigger. What pdf preset are you using to create...

Glad to help...Sometimes it's just pointing into the right direction to will open up new possibilities and PitStop Pro has tons of other features like this. You just need to find them. Let's say I'm very close to the source. ;)

Using the inspector you can indeed change some page box settings but these are single actions and not everything can be done. (feature request if they are listening) Here are steps to get this to work: 1. Create action list - go to plugins>pistop pro>run action lis - select the local database...

They have a YouTube channel called 'EnfocusCommunity'. EnfocusCommunity's Channel - YouTube bert

I have no direct solution for the first issue. Does this happen with all files you open in Acrobat? I would think fonts is only an issue when selecting a text element on the page. Can you add a screen grab of what the inspector is,showing after the time-out? About the second, you can it in...

Matt, I'm afraid that's an Adobe restriction/change, since version 8 or 9 of Acrobat. Nevertheless, i understand your frustration. I had the same feeling. Bert
