1. Yes, absolutely. PitStop can check for the size of any of the PDF boxes (trim, crop, bleed, art and mediabox). So you could easily customize a PDF Profile so that it errors (or warns) on a trimbox not being A4. 2. Depends on how exactly your document is formed to be honest. I would send an...

Randall, Don't know specifically for PitStop 7.52, but I just tried this with PitStop Professional 08 and the images are listed per page (as I would expect). Did you ask support ([email protected])? They might be able to help you more. Thanks, David.

And the reason Adobe didn't make changes until version 7 of Acrobat to the way their own plug-ins handled initialization was? Not nice Leonard. I didn't think this forum was about bashing vendors. To answer the question - we know about the problem - I'd be interested to figure out why you are...

Heey guru :-) Thanks for filling out the survey, much appreciated! Feedback is always greatly appreciated, don't hesitate to send me email, I read all of it. And I'm intrigued by the "takes a few clicks longer" because that shouldn't be. The intention of the release was to remove clicks - can...

Kristian, have you looked into Remote Director from ICS Color? You'll find more information on their website. Regards, David.

Sounds perfect :) If you could drop me a note at davidvd at enfocus dot com that would be great. (Anyone else who would like to give feedback and participate is more than welcome to do the same). In the mean time, for you and anyone else who wants to give feedback on our software and your...

I'm not about to start a flame war, but I will answer this. In a pleasant tone I might add. 1) I would hope you often change your work because of the fact that you want to do a better job and want to fundamentally improve the quality of the service you deliver to your customers. 2) I suspect...

I obviously come from a different part of the world, working at Enfocus and - once a long time ago - having been the developer who started the PitStop product. I understand your concerns and I understand where you are coming from. But I refuse to see it as black and white as you state it to be...

I would second that advice. I wouldn't necessarily advise you to wait 30 days (but working for Enfocus I would be biased :)), but I would download the trial version of PitStop Professional 08 (here on the Enfocus website) and try it out both in Acrobat 7 and 9. That way you're sure it works in...

I find it strange that having owned a Compose workflow apparently has proven to you that all workflows based on Global Graphics technology are bad. And I don't even work for Global Graphics... David.

Even though I'm biased, I don't think that's a fair comparison. PDF was not made for editing at all, the fact that you can edit it - certainly to the extent possible with PitStop - is not a trivial thing. If I take your car metaphor, I would compare it to having the ability to make your car fly...

Complain away, we're listening (well reading in this case) and we'll be happy to try and make our software better. But lets take one step back and allow me to make one observation first of all. Designing good user interface for complex products which is efficient for all users is very, very...

I can answer that one. I asked why people wanted to outline fonts in PDF years ago on the Enfocus user group. I got several very good answers so we scheduled the feature to go into the next major update of PitStop Professional. That being said: use with care. Realize that you do sacrifice...

Sorry, have to disagree with that. When rendering PDF files you're either using the fonts on your system (in which case hinting is available) or embedded fonts (in which case hinting is available). Kind regards, David.

Hi, As a side note on your comment: Enfocus has an email-based usergroup to which you can subscribe at the Enfocus website here. That's an ideal place to ask this type of question (next to PrintPlanet of course). Regards, David.

Lukas, I'm currently vice-chair of the Ghent PDF Workgroup (www.gwg.org) and as such I can answer your question from that perspective. The Ghent PDF Workgroup came into existence based on the demand of many regional end-user (mainly printer and publisher) trade organizations. They were all...

Hi Rande, If you talk about PitStop Professional 08, that is currently not completely compatible with Acrobat Professional 9. There will be a (free) update to PitStop Professional that will introduce compatibility with Acrobat 9 in September. Hope this helps, David.

Rande, PitStop Professional 08 works fine in both Adobe Acrobat 7 and 8. Acrobat 6 definitely does not work on the Mac and probably does not work on Windows (we don't support it and haven't tried it to any extent). So you could always go back to Acrobat 7 if need be. On the font issue, I'd...

There are two things that could help you if there is no other tool available. First of all, FullSwitch and PowerSwitch can execute Apple Automator workflows, so if you can write your task as an Automator workflow, you can then run that workflow from within a bigger Switch flow. Secondly...
